Ludum Dare Database

@alex48's thoughts:

"Hi! I’ve restored a complete directory of all lost LD events from the Web Archive (including leaderboards and rankings), and put them into a searchable database. Also you can view position charts for all your events. PS. 0 ads, 0 cookies, 0 trackings, 0 js frameworks."

Briefing

The newly restored Ludum Dare Database allows developers to explore a comprehensive directory of past Ludum Dare events, complete with leaderboards and rankings sourced from the Web Archive. This resource is invaluable for those looking to learn from previous game jams, as it provides a searchable platform to analyze past performances and trends.

With the absence of ads, cookies, and JavaScript frameworks, developers can focus solely on the data without distractions. This initiative not only preserves the history of Ludum Dare but also fosters a deeper understanding of game development practices among participants, making it a must-visit for anyone involved in game jams.
