Ludum Dare
The Ludum Dare is one of the most iconic and popular game jams in the world. This international event brings together thousands of developers, artists, and designers to create a video game within a limited time frame: 48 hours solo or 72 hours in a team. Each edition revolves around a common theme, revealed at the last minute, which pushes participants to showcase creativity, improvisation, and speed.
For me, Ludum Dare is a unique opportunity to push my limits, experiment with new ideas, and collaborate with diverse talents. I try to participate at least once a year, forming different teams each time. This allows me to explore new approaches, learn from others, and create original games in a stimulating and supportive environment.
Below is the list of games I’ve created by participating in these jams.

HellKiller (2024)
Theme: Summoning
This game is a mix between Isaac and Vampire Survivor. In this top-down game, you must kill as many enemies as possible and collect perks to grow stronger.
But beware: not all perks are beneficial! Like in Isaac, some perks can have strange effects or negative stats, adding a dose of RNG to your build.
Aim for the highest score and climb the leaderboard!
Garçon (2023)
Theme: Delivery
You’ve just been hired as a lobby boy at the best hotel in the area, and you have one week to prove you deserve the job!
In this FPS-view game, you play as the bellboy and must take customer orders, collect the requested items, and deliver them to the right room. Will you be fast enough to satisfy the customers and keep your job?
Whatever it cost (2018)
Theme: Sacrifices Must Be Made
Dive into this turn-based strategy game where every decision matters and sacrifices are inevitable. Most of your items are consumable, and you’ll likely have to give up precious items to progress in your quest.
In a ruthless world, every choice comes at a cost. Will you be ready to sacrifice what you hold dear to achieve your goal? Think carefully, as every loss could change the course of your adventure...
Rocket-Pet (2018)
Theme: Combine 2 Incompatible Genres
This game is a bold mashup between a shoot'em up and a Tamagotchi-style game.
The goal is twofold: eliminate enemies and take care of your spaceship, which is also your pet. The game is split into 2 phases:
• You control the ship to eradicate an area filled with... chickens.
• Once the area is cleared, you switch to care mode to heal, clean, and upgrade your ship-pet.
