JS13K Preparation

-

JS13K Is an annual gamejam (hackerthon) held on the 13th of August and participants are given 30 days to created a game using JavaScript less than 13KB in size minified (optional) and zipped including assets

On the 13th of August a 'secret' theme is announced and everybody must create a game inline with it.

Last years competition was so epic. it was themed "back". And as a beginner i dropped two entries "watchmyback" and "firedrone" interpreting the theme in my own way

So far i've been watching everyone showcasing their amazing and creative works under the hashtag #js13k on Twitter

For today i'm only going to create a new directory for my project, init a git repository and stuff.
