I will enter the jam
There’s some good themes in the vote rounds,
I really hope I’ll be inspired though, hard to make a game without an idea.
this is going to be my first time. I just hope I can really finish something decent in just two days. I like some of the themes and others just thrill me but scare me. Like genetics: could be awesome but at the same time tough!
Kept telling myself “will enter LD this time” for the last 2 years, but real life events have prevented me from doing so.
Will try to enter the jam this year also, hope I can at least start something!
Being able to start (and finish) something will be enough motivation to try a little bit harder and not skip LD anymore.
yeee… I am ready too
Will open a repo later on, and will (probably) start my blog with it…
Oh boy…the shivers
if somebody is on it and want to have a chat, share stuff or whatever I am on skype “imentefox”
Well the theme doesn’t inspire me
I’ll still do a game if I find an idea, but there’s less and less time.
@yupswing @yuigoto @player_03 how’s the theme treating you? found a great idea? made progress on your games?
making progress… (this is going to be the third game in my life…)
I set up a world and I have collisions and movements done.
The player also can move around.
I am trying to use tilecraft so the world is 2.5D.
this is where I am right now.
'lo :P…I had an idea with fruits…
I’m making progress…I think…I’m making sort of an arena shooter…but can’t find a clever way to center the camera on player while using the mouse to control it …
Working on mechanics and camera before graphics for now
Also…how to work with sprite layering? This is gonna take some time :3 Like when the player/objects come from top and his feet gets hidden behind another object…
My idea is something like a zombie-fruit-arena-shooter
Gotta reduce the size of the gif above…consumed 8gb already on imgur (published on the LD website also…1k+ views)…I’m scared
Here’s one of the characters…:P…
It’s becoming hard. I think I will not have enough time.
Ow… For the compo or the jam? I’m aiming mostly for the jam…gameplay is taking too long…
Just made some basic controls and camera…
Still…pretty ugly…
I was aiming to the compo but I am too far away from an end.
It is very hard in just 2 days.
Especially with low experience
Yeah…when I got the idea it looked easy enough to build…but controls aren’t that easy…camera also
my idea is too big…
basically it is a mirror. robots shoot at you and you reflect the lasers against them.
it is becoming so hard, too much trig and I have never made a game with a map and entities around.
Still have time, I’ll try to do as much as I can.
Yeah…mine is an arena shooter where you control a strawberry
It attacks using seeds while spinning…so attacks go in random directions
But since seeds are part of your body…you lose health if you shoot too much and juice starts leaking…so you have to wait for ammo to refill… I looked at some really bad comics I made some years ago about fruits and decided I’d use fruits
So far, I’ve got an idea, and a character walking around.
Plus a framework that I can build on.
Took too much time working camera, basic gameplay and stuff…ended up a little bit crappy…but nah…good enough for first time …aiming for the jam
I’m specially fond of the health and ammo bars
