Good luck and don't order the Americano :D

South Korea? That gives you a head start ;)

Will you be ok to upload your build at the end of the competition despite the bandwidth issue?

Good luck to you and your girlfriend--and I hope that the competition does indeed help her with her art.

Has an idea been decided upon yet?

(I do hope that the bandwidth cap doesn't prove to be too great an impediment; can you upload your entry from the coffee shop? :/)

Yes I will be okay. Nearly every coffee shop here as internet access. Most of it is capable of decent upload speeds. A relief.

We accomplished a lot in our first evening. First thing was brainstorming and then she got to drawing. To help spark her to be fully committed to this competition the first thing I did was get her character in game with walking animations. Her response, "The sight of it makes me drool." I think it is safe to say she is hooked. I lost some time intitially with prototyping by doing this but I believe setting the hook was far more important.

I want to show off what we have accomplished tonight, but SHE INSISTS on keeping most of it a secret for now.

Good plan 0sok. One of the things I accomplished today was the ability to load up the game assets and get them moving while she worked on rough placeholders for a few game bits. Now we can see them in action from Day 1 and hopefully be able to polish them along the way.
