Can someone who actually knows how to make games and write code tell me how feasible this "Let's Queer WarioWare-style Microgames With A Game Jam And Then Combine All The Microgames We Made Into One Mega WarioWare-style Game" idea is? If everyone used GameMaker would it be possible? Would we need to specify a set framework for all jam participants to follow beforehand? Is there even interest in something like this?

I'd love to hear your thoughts. awoo.space/media/k7lg-BNTutBQ5

@thethinktanker If everyone used GMS, then yeah, doable. Not sure if makin' it a package would help, but you can definitely use project files sent by someone else and shufti them round. It was the main basis of the GMS humble bundle, as I recall.

@thethinktanker im not super familiar w gm but if all of the games are set up to be modular and rather architectually generic there's no reason why they couldn't be loaded in like any gm scene/level/room
