Kostas here, during the past weekend I took part in a rapid-gamedev competition, #tagjam15.
This compo is a monthly 48-hour or 72-hour game-development jam which I came across by luck. I thought it was a good chance to force myself to make, complete and publish a game in a competition context, so I went for it.
The resulting game is Flashy Dansy, a Flashdance-parody where you dance to the song "What A Feeling" in the middle of a bridge road.
You can play online or download the game here.
This weird game concept is a result of the gamejam's themes, which included "Bridge" and "80's music" among others.
I am glad to see this game complete and polished in such a short deadline, and hope for more games like this to follow.
I would like to thank the other #tagjam15 participants who shared this experience and provided motivation to me, as well as Haddy for hosting the gamejam.
Update:
Flashy Dansy was the winner of the #tagjam15 competition! I am thrilled by the idea that this little game stood up so well in a gamejam, against 6 competing games (plus 3 non-compo). Hopefully this will be a motivation for more gamejams and more successes in the future.
