Evolution of a Planet by BubuIIC
Darn! I'm not finished! :-(
First I slipped in the Jam and then I still didn't make it. Just a few hours missing to being playable...argh, so close! I'll finish it tomorrow and upload a post-jam version.
Second Ludum Dara entry, this time from me alone. First time working with Pygame, which has been amazing!
The game: Your goal is it to recreate the evolution of the planet earth from it's early beginnings as boiling magma sphere to the evolution of life, humans and civilization.
You combine multiple Elements to unlock new ones. Just try it, it's easy!
PS: A lot of pictures are still missing, I did not have the time to create them for all elements)
Credits/Tools:
- Coded from scratch with Python 3 + Pygame
- Graphics with Inkscape and Photoshop (with help from f-w with the title image, thanks!)
- Music generated with autotracker-bu
- Generated the standalone app with cx_freeze
- Title image is an adaption from here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/gsfc/7753691170/ (CC-by, NASA)
- The Font is "EB Garamond" from here: http://openfontlibrary.org/en/font/eb-garamond (OFL License)
Inspiration was this game: http://www.gamesgames.com/game/Alchemy-Evolution.html
Or actually another one which I played 1,5 years ago or so and can't remember the name.
PPS: I have no possibility of generating a standalone OS/X version of the game, as I don't own a Mac. The game uses Python 3 + Pygame, so if you have that installed, the source version will work fine. If you have, I'd love to hear from you. I'm still looking for someone to help me build the OS/X version.

Your music is going to be stuck in my head for the rest of the night!
