Another LD Jam in the books, which means it’s time for another post mortem!<\/p>\n

Fear and Freedom – a game by Andrew Deem and Bez Imlay<\/p>\n

This game pushed us to some new limits. Submitted the game to the jam early due to work (which also meant we didn’t have time for music), but all in all we’re quite proud of it.<\/p>\n

The theme gave us some pause when we learned what it was, mostly due to the fact that we had so many cool ideas that we wanted to explore. Ultimately we settled for a game about a prisoner with a curse who can choose their fate. The game has 3 endings, the third of which is the hardest to get. Coding in 3 endings was a new challenge for me (Andrew) since I’ve never done anything like that before in a game.<\/p>\n

\n The art was done by Bez Imlay and it was her first time doing a jam. She’s been working on and off with pixel art for the past year or so and we’re both happy with her hard work! She also wrote the story and helped with the design of the game.<\/p>\n

Level design and coding (Game Maker) was done by me. The last bit of the game can be pretty hard, so if you struggle with it feel free to throw your curses towards me! I won’t be offended. \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n
