ZakAmana won Ludum Dare 47, which took place in October 2020.
Ludum Dare is a popular game development competition where participants create a game from scratch in a very short timeframe, typically a weekend. It's known for fostering creativity and rapid prototyping within the indie game development community.
Ludum Dare Competition Overview
Ludum Dare events are held multiple times a year, with each competition having a specific theme announced at the start. Developers can participate in two main categories:
- Compo: A solo competition where participants must create all assets themselves within 48 hours.
- Jam: A more relaxed competition that allows teams and has a longer deadline (typically 72 hours), with fewer restrictions on asset creation.
The winners are determined by community voting across various categories, including innovation, graphics, audio, fun, and overall.
