After 20 Years, Influential Game Jam Ludum Dare Will Wind Down - Aftermath (Nicole Carpenter)

6 months ago by MoogleMaestro to c/gamedev

Beginning as a forum and then turning into a game jam, Ludum Dare has generated the ideas for games like Inscryption, Mini Metro, Dorfromantik, Hollow Knight, and Loop Hero. Now it's future is uncertain.

Well, maybe.

As per the official blog post:

Ludum Dare 64 in October 2028 will be the last scheduled Ludum Dare event!

Take note that I’ve chosen my words carefully: scheduled. Knowing myself, it’s likely the big six-four will become such a fun memorable event for me, that I’m gonna want one more. Maybe two? 😉

Sad

All good things must come to an end
