Seahorse delivery by LDJam user 362721

[raw]
made by LDJam user 362721 for Ludum Dare 53 (JAM)

You have to find a safer place to deliver your children, go through caves and predator infested waters to get to a place where your children can grow up safely.

Disclaimer: Game is not completely finished as I didn't have a lot of time and started far to late. Missing features. Dying (currently enemies only knock you back and slow you down), timer and leaderboard, sounds and a way to close the game.

I did not have any experience with the 2D side of unity, so I had to learn a lot while developing the game. I believe I did well considering this is my first time working on such a time limit.

Made with unity in about 12 hours.

The game was fun, and easy to learn. There should be a button for closing the game though :)

With a bit more work you could have made this into a really fun little game, but for now it feels really unfinished. But I hope you learned something you can use for your next game.

Nice concept. Seahorse just needs some cute animation! And the sound. But the idea of a seahorse delivery adventure is fun!

First and foremost, congratulations on your attempt. Sea horse delivery is a good idea, but it is unfinished. This game requires a lot of work, but the fact that you completed the basics in such a short period of time is greatly appreciated. Nice try, and best wishes for your next game jam:)

WOW, very cool that game made on unity. It's with nice concept and sounds. I didn't see ideas like this on this ludum

The background looked nice and I liked the mood that the lighting brought. Great work - especially considering you were learning the 2D side of Unity.

Great effort for your first attempt! The game is definitely unfinished but I can't hold that against you in the timeframe and with this being one of your first releases! Great work!

Considering your limitations of starting late and not having enough time, AND it being your first time doing 2D in Unity, its a really good entry!

the game is super Comfy! and the graphics are cute as hell, and really lend themselves to the atmosphere. I think some music would really help sell the feeling you were after. The game is also really unique this ludumdare, which i LOVE!

Solid game, i feel like it was just a few steps shy from being great!

Great little game!! A can tell how much care and effort went into this, and I just want to say - this absolutely blows my first-time entry out of the water. It's quite an ambitious project for your first experience with Unity 2D, and I've got to say it's paid off!

It's obviously got a little ways to go, some polish would do it wonders, but this is excellent. You should be proud of yourself!

Keep up the awesome work @ludovics!! :grin:
