🌟 Achievement Unlocked: Completed My First Speed Game Jam! 🌟
I’m thrilled to share that I successfully completed the 5th SpeedJam, a 72-hour game jam focused on creating games that can be speedrun. This was my first time participating in a game jam, and it was an incredible learning experience.
🚀 What I Learned:
Mastered 2D platforming character controls
Integrated online leaderboards using LootLocker
Despite being nervous about the tight timeframe, I managed to finish my game and had a lot of fun along the way. This experience has not only improved my technical skills but also boosted my confidence in game development.
🎮 I look forward to applying these new skills in future projects and continuing my journey in the game development world. Big thanks to everyone who supported me during this challenge!

There is growing evidence of the benefits of children and young people gaming while in hospital.
It's a challenge for hospitals who don't necessarily have the tech, the people, the processes, and the spaces to enable it.
In addition to the physical, mental and social health benefits, addressing this gap would reduce inequalities between children who have their own devices and those who don't, those who are seen as gamers and those who aren't.
We helped the Glasgow Children's Hospital Charity research, co-design, prototype and test how a gaming service might look like in practice.
In 2 weeks.
It sounds practically impossible but here are some thoughts on what made it possible.
- Getting connected to the right people who know the organisation well. Thank you Jonathan Haggarty
- 2 weeks is the tip of the iceberg. Planning the project took several months with Douglas Samson
- An experienced team Harriet de Wet and Claire McCready, supported behind the scenes by the BJSS and SPARCK
- A clear process for fast innovation. You make a plan and you follow the plan, so everyone knows what's going to happen and how they need to support.
- Staff with an appetite for innovation, a natural curiosity, committed to their patients' needs, who knew how to put in place safeguards, and who made themselves available.
- Focus on the next steps, what does the organisation need to implement the service.
#GlasgowInnovation#ServiceDesign#Innovation
To ensure young patients receive the extra special care they deserve, the Glasgow Children's Hospital Charity (GCHC) fundraises tirelessly, with a £41 million investment since 2001.
Learn how we've helped the GCHC design a new gaming service with the ultimate aim of enabling children to access and play video games whilst in hospital. 🎮

Greetings Travelers,
As of today there are only 3 weeks left to donate to our Kickstarter campaign, which ends on September 21st, 2023. So far we have raised about one 3rd of our initial goal. Kickstarter is an all or nothing platform, so unless we reach that 3000$ mark, the campaign will fail and we will receive none of the pledged funds. So please, if you’ve been thinking about donating, do so, or if you know someone who might be interested, spread the word. This won’t work without support.
As a reminder backer rewards include a digital copy of the game on release, your name in a dedicated section, and the ability to submit a pre-made character to be released alongside the game itself. We also have a number of stretch goals, including pre-made, ready to play campaigns and additional art.
If you are interested in donating, but are unfamiliar with Kickstarter as a platform, please understand that an account is required both so that we can track the donations we are receiving and so that we can effectively deliver rewards to backers who were generous enough to help us reach our funding goals. Understand also that you are pledging money, not paying upfront. Money will only change hands if the initial 3000$ goal is surpassed.
That’s all for now, any pledges are deeply appreciated, as are any new eyes you might be able to bring to this project. Here is the link to the campaign:

Thank you and Farewell Travelers
-James C. Scully Jr. and R. Scott Fifer, the Harbor Games Team

Check out, our latest activity on #roblox for Hochland.
Hochland, in collaboration with Pajacyk (Polish charity), provides daily support to people in need 🥪. We've integrated this model into the game, allowing even the youngest players to make a real difference.
This exemplifies how young gamers can impact the real world: do what you love – play the game, earn points, and provide a meal for those in need.
It's a prime example of turning gaming into tangible help!
During the campaign, players have generated over 2,500 free meals for young children in need, and it's still ongoing...

I developed a unique tabletop strategy board game called Vediic. The game introduces a new twist, challenging players to balance material gain with spirituality for victory. Inspired by the Indian knowledge and value system, Vediic offers a fresh and engaging gaming experience. #BoardGame#StrategyGame#Vediic
Vediic is a strategic board game for 2-7 players that masterfully blends materialism with spirituality. It features elements of both competition cooperation. Players traverse the paths of the board, vying to strategically align with wandering planets. These planets shift from one house to another, usually triggering the activation of pawn positions and dispensing positive rewards through benefit cards that propel players forward. However, when planets transition into retrograde, their influences turn negative, impeding player progress and necessitating strategic maneuvers to avoid setbacks. The primary goal of the game is to skillfully navigate these celestial dynamics to accrue material gains in the form of benefit cards and make strategic donations, thereby earning enlightenment points. Players strive for the ultimate spiritual victory by elevating their pawns to higher levels of enlightenment through promotion or ascension.
Thank you so much!

I do appreciate your support very much as it is my first venture of this sort. Please do spread the word to friends and families with teenage kids who play table top strategy games.
