Descent
The article discusses how Jojivian Sleighride, an early 2000s online game created by anonymous developer Notepad Anon, was never completed or released due to lack of interest and availability on the internet in 2022 when a new website holder shared them with note pad-anon. It also describes their creation process as including elements such "flavor text" scattered among folders containing nearly empty files related only tangentially to game development before deciding that it would be better if the project was completed by other individuals, hence creating Jojivian Sleighride Jam in February 2023 for a month-long contest. The article notes that while some participants were disappointed with its lack of rules and structure as they had hoped upon first finding them online seven years earlier when little else existed on this subject matter.
