November was packed and busy to a point the Monthly Report is late again, but at least it’s not the last day of the month like the October one, so there’s progress!
Games
Hopefully soon.

OP Guild
LittleJS Game Jam starting where OP Guild is one of the partners, inviting more folks to the OP Games Discord channel where OP Guild have a place, and talking with folks about potential collaborations.
Events
With the traditional delays, most of the js13kGames digital prizes were sent out to their winners.
The sizes with addresses for shipping the js13kGames t-shirts with swag were collected as well.
Same as last year, I also went to US and attended GitHub Universe 2024 in San Francisco thanks to (still) being part of the GitHub Stars program.
We also had an online W3C Games CG meetup with GameSnacks where we discussed Open Mini Games format and the future of the group itself.
Other
I bought myself a vertical mouse for the first time, Logitech MX Vertical to be precise, and enjoying it so far. It’s only for gaming (playing Project Zomboid currently) as I’m used to working with the touchpad alone on my MacBook.
Gamedev.js Survey 2024 had its questions and answers updated thanks to the help from the community.
I had an account earlier already, but after the GitHub Universe conference I’ve started using Bluesky.
Plans for the next month
Running Gamedev.js Survey 2024, and catching up on all the work before the end of the year.
