Well the results for the #lispgamejam are out. This time I did 30th out of 48; or 37.5%. That's an improvement over last year's 25/30 (17%), but it's not as much as I'd hoped.
I achieved good looks (12/48) and decent entertainment (23/48), but our creativity was quite low (33/48). I originally wanted to add vehicle-mounted weapons and power-ups. But they were cut due to running out of time. Looking at other top ranking games, I think I was on the right track but probably needed to add some kind of twist on the driving game to achieve a higher ranking.
Maybe I should partner up with someone for the next Jam.
@etenil Congrats for securing #12 rank in a category, that's a great success imho! Your game will soon be introduced to my daugthers now that you have an AppImage. 🙂

Making gender a selling point is always a weird vibe. You remember the TLC song No Scrubs? Did you know there was a clapback response song called No Pigeons?
It was put together by some out of touch producer who thought men would rally behind it. But in reality men on the whole weren’t really angry about the TLC song, and Sporty Thievz didn’t have much star power on their own. It hit #12 on the US Billboard Hot 100, got a bunch of radio play for a minute, and then they faded into obscurity entirely.
