Please give this game some love!! Due to an unfortunate incident, no ratings were recorded for this Ludum Dare 58 game. The issue has been since resolved, but regrettably this game still got stuck without a final rating. 🤦♂️ #LDJam

Results for Ludum Dare 58 *should* be up earlier than the countdown clock suggests. @distraction.engineer just needs to verify there's nothing fishy.
2-3 hours if all goes smoothly, much longer if not. #LDJam

#LDJam people! If you're using Unity: Make sure to do WebGL! If you hadn't seen Unity just disclosed that there is vulnerabilities in older versions that affect Desktop Windows/Linux/Max!
WebGL is better AND safer for everyone! It makes it so people don't need to download/setup anything to play!

So uh, is anyone looking to hire a developer with an uncomfortable amount of knowledge about #atproto and #activitypub, experience building from scratch and running a social network (@ludumdare.com), hacking on GPU drivers/network protocols/the Linux kernel, plus a couple decades as a pro gamedev? 🤷
Shit... no job. Ah well, you can't say I didn't try. 🤷

If you still have one (🤢), go give this Tweet a like, and drop a comment @ Tim Sweeny daring or challenging him to make (fund) an "Epic" open source gaming Linux distro next. Everyone wins. 🐧 #EpicMegaOS

All your games are in and @sarajs.games is downloading them so that they’re ready for the stream on Twitch Sun, May 4th, 2025 (16:00 BST).
Get a first look at a bunch of Ludum Dare games, and see what advice an expert developer gives them.

If there was an #LDJam award for integrity, it goes to Nine Lives Deep. 🏆
I have the CRAZIEST #LDJam story.
Simon, a creator of Nine Lives Deep reached out after noticing something was wrong with his ratings. He was afraid someone mass down-voted his game.
On the contrary, they mass upvoted dozens of games.
Guess what place Simon & co got? 🤦

Apologies for the delay. @distraction.engineer is getting over their shock from what was discovered. Will share more another day. Results should be live within the hour.
Sincere apologies, but we wont be doing Live Results for Ludum Dare 57. We discovered some suspicious rating data we will be purging, but @distraction.engineer needs a bit more time to dump it for later analysis. 🚓
Stay tuned. All results should drop as scheduled, but TBD
