I challenged him to make the hardest game in the world... it took 10 days. 

Thank you for making this possible. I couldn't be happier to actually participate, let alone be in the top 5! This jam has been one of the best moments of my life and I can't thank y'all enough. Going to work out a full version of Back to the nest, called Rust Bird! It's going to be sick

Eraser was sooo sick. Honestly gameplay like that would be amazing as its own full standalone game. Like imagine an entire platformer game with those mechanics for movement, a full story/levels and everything. That's insane. That'd be awesome.

Pump King dev here. Honored to be a part of this! It was a blast and the community is amazing and crazy talented. The theme was perfect and so many market-worthy game ideas came out of it. The foddian genre is about to explode and I can't wait to see these games blowing up on steam. This is not the last you'll see of Pump King. Big thanks to Lud and the mods for all the hard work in hosting this.

The noise that Pullywog made when the lil dude hit the ground was perfect

The Eraser developer is an absolute madlad. Parry this memes, insane tech and absolutely miserable gameplay.

It’s crazy that some of the games I watched you play on stream didn’t even make the top 10, the quality of games is insane

Bravo to all the devs! Had fun grinding out a few of these :)

Michael even got to Ludwigs stream, he's literally everywhere except his channel

Thanks for doing this game jam! It got me off my ass and helped me make something I'm really proud of, and it still feels unreal to have won! I've actually got a steam page for Eraser set up, and I plan to release a free multiplayer version of my game there soon!

pinkatana looked really cool, hopefully that gets some kind of full release or something

My game, Adversity Andy got an honorable mention on stream! Was a lot of fun and would 100% do something like this again. Loved seeing all the different games that all these amazing devs put out!

THANKS LUD FOR HAVING ME ON IT WAS POG

Pinkatana slept on hard, the movement in that game looks so dope. Hope the Dev continues to work on it

When you are a reeves fan and are so starved for content that just hearing his screech in someone else’s video is enough to warm your heart

Eraser was definitely the most unique game and was my personal favourite. But overall, good shit

I would absolutely help fund the person that made Phoenix, write A full version of that game would be absolutely sick

I made The Dating Game, one of the honorable mentions. The jam was a lot of fun! I hope the next one has a better theme though.

Having a game jam and picking those judges was such a good idea, all these games are amazing. Props to everyone who entered!

The fact that lud spent $15,000 on this tournament and didn't even mentioned it in the title is just so out of character. Usually he would milk the fuck out of it.

My submission Teleport Tower didn't make the video, but did get an honorable mention on stream which was fun! Over all great experience participating in this jam. I'll be putting out my own video about the jam within the next couple weeks.

Loved these games! Good job everyone.

I love the fact that Michael is here. He doesn't even create his own content at this point, he just guests in other people's videos xD Anyways props to all these game devs! All the top 10 games look amazing!

lud is still doing daily uploads despite mans saying he wasnt going to...

Thanks for supporting pullywog y’all!!! ✌️

This was so inspiring to see! Love that he rewarded everyone who participated in the top 10 as well.

I love how Michael is just there, made my day

The top 5 could easily become full fledged standalone game and I’m all for it

To any developers reading this, incredible work to everyone who made it on the video and those that didn't.

So kind of Slime to let this smaller streamer do a Twitch Stream on his account

Michael hitting alt+f4 on that typing game had me dying

I love this. Between this and stream sharks this is a real good space for small-time indie devs to be in rn!

I actually love how ludwig makes his viewers feel not only involved but included and feel like he cares. It's crazy to see so consistently in a streamer

very cool and fun idea! love to see smaller devs under the spotlight and getting support

Please do another one of these in the future! I can’t believe I didn’t hear about it but I would definitely want to do it (assuming it’s out of exam season)

Pinkatana was so good

Michael's presence added so much to this video.Thx for supporting smaller creators, lud.

Man I really been going threw it. And a lot of times it’s just hard to laugh. Or at least stay in a good mood. But watching your videos always takes my mind elsewhere, and I laugh so much. I truly appreciate you man. Your content is awesome

Please do more of these! This was awesome! Maybe in a future jam people could make small multiplayer games akin to among us or crab game and test it out with other popular streamers!

Respect 2 Ludwig for this and all the creators and games made were sick. Thx 4 sharing!

Ludwig this is why your my favorite. You bot only make good content but you basically give us highquaility games like wtf more can i ask for from someone online.

love this concept, would def watch again

The stick figure game is unironically insanely cool looking, well done whoever made it!

I kind of expected all of these games to just be trolling Ludwig, but they're actually awesome. Props to the creators.

Ludwig and michael reeves interacting is something I never knew I needed

5:42 Egg sighted, good to see Lud enjoys quality content

props to these developers, don’t even know how you make something like this but props all the same

They all honestly look like they would be "fun" to play.

seeing ludwig run a game jam is the greatest thing ever

I'm really glad you still decided to give something to those out of the top 5. I'm not as skilled as you are at those games, they looked like they would make me rage quit within 30seconds. But they all looked amazing and were created by some seriously talented people. Very awesome of you Ludwig!

this is a certified hood classic

Michael Reeves showing up out of nowhere and saying “yea probably got a lil bit of Java in there” sent me lmaooo

Pinkkatana and sorcery climb were my favourites

Pullywog is so cute and funny the sound when the frog hits the ground was funny and just the frog in general was super adorable

Great concept and great execution, you always keep things fresh with your content 👌🏼👏🏼

What's even crazier is the fact that they speedran making these games in like 5 hours - devs pop off

these were absolutely fantastic! kinda jazzed to try some of them out

I'd love if this became a recurring series. There's lots of us gamedevs that would love to try this but found out too late.

Love the idea of this game jam, keep it up bro.

This is awesome. I would love to see more things like this.

I enjoyed watching all of them I can’t even imagine making these in the time they did puts some developers to shame

These games are amazing and to the creators hope you continue doing what ya doing.

This is the content I follow you for Lud

bro i wouldnt even be mad about falling in pullywog the 'slap, plop' when u fall n get up sounds so nice

the quality of these games for being made in such a short time is insane! respect to the developers

"And You are always in a perennial starfish like my ex" 😂😂😂😂

seeing ludwig shocked is the funniest thing ever

“The thing about me is we are not equals, watch me.” Is a powerful quote

imo this is the sort of unique content that you do best. Keep it up!

All these games are insane. Good job devs

Dude the art and gameplay of pinkatana was so sick tho

I love the way this game jam turned out

The sound effects in Pollywog are hilarious and extremely satisfying

Ludwig speedrunning erased would be fun to watch

I would love to see Ludwig try to make a game

I'm so happy everyone made content for lud and he didn't rage!

i started watching the first part of this like an hour ago and i came back to it and i started at 0:45 when lud just says “you weak little man” 💀

Pinkata was my fav

pump king is such a creative concept. I understand why it didn't place but I love that concept

pink katana got snubbed hard, how did it not even make top 5? I'd definitly put it at #2 right behind eraser

Man all those game were nuts, Pullywog and Eraser were my favorites tho

ludwig being a good boy with the prize money

10:52 when the shamisen starts playing I go "Is that rokudan??" I check but still isn't sure but I am certain I heard of it before Mashiro no oto really get that Rokudan and Jogara bushi in grained in my head

God jammer gauntlet. Speedrun all 10 of these games

that pink katana game would be dope as a normal game. just using ur katana to bounce off stuff. maybe even add some boss fights or something

I love that RU-vid is convinced this is Happy Wheels

eraser and pullywog are the only non-negotiables for sure

In eraser Ludwig was just inventing new terminology for chained moves "You can double dodge roll into a parry stun?!?!"

That Eraser game was freaking insane!!! Imagine that game with a bit more budget behind it. Would be absolutely epic

That black/white illustration style one would get me to start playing these games. Reminds of classic style artists like cuphead

2:14 he made that sound right as i dropped a nugget in the bowl which made the same sound and that made me laugh.

This thumbnail is such a fucking stretch from the context of the actual video and the Ludwig's Game Jam event. I am in awe, this man is truly a youtube savant.

Commenting for the algorithm so Lud does this again next year

13:50 😂 How many times have you made QT say that, Ludwig?

When the trailer for eraser made me irl pog I knew it was the winner

Eraser and the frog one were my favorites. Eraser was especially creative, I want to see a whole game of that

The stick figure line art game was visually crazy

Man all those games were really well made, gj devs :)

Dude people are so talented

Honestly back to the nest, if it becomes a full game, I would love to see speed runs in this so much.

We love the Michael reeves cameo
