Quote: Minecraft developer Mojang is teaming up with the people behind the Humble Bundle to make a game in 60 hours. The proceeds from the game they make will go to charity. The event will be called the Humble Bundle Mojam and will start this Friday at 10 AM CET (1 AM PT). The Mojang team spend a marathon 60 hours developing the game, and anyone who donates during those 60 hours will get the game when it is finished.
There will be other perks for meeting certain donation goals, though what they will be has not been determined at this time. Mojang is also conducting two polls to determine the genre and theme of its 60-hour game. The highest and lowest genres chosen will be combined. http://www.mojang.com/2012/02/15/humble-bundle-mojam/_________________  >f7> Jiko: msleeper is a robot powered by spite.

The idea is great. The inevitable product of the idea - a pixelart, sandbox pile of garbage I'll get bored of after 3 hours - won't be.

Yeah strika, we get it, you don't like minecraft.  I don't see how 60 hours is enough for pretty well anything with how small their team is, but we'll see, won't we. Edit; So far the poll is calling for a Real-Time strategy Shoot-Em-Up. Uhh... _________________

I'll throw in for it, worst case scenario I end up with another game cluttering up my library, or we give it away on the show or something.

RTS Shooter that's Steampunk Egyptian? I want to see this. I don't care if it's good or bad, I just must see this.

I was really hoping for beat-em-up dating sim horror candyland, myself.
