Melting Ice Post Mortem

Hi everyone, just a few words to conclude this jam

It was the second time my team ( Crazy Collibri) and I join the Ludum dare, the first time was a fail and we cancel the project in the middle. But the time, ten LD events later, we come back with more experience on the tools and we do it ! the theme was a bit hard at the beggining because we don't want to go the same way the others do ! after a few hours brainstorming we found the idea ! And here comes Melting Ice

The first big work on the game was the Penguin AI that was finally a success, the events works nicely and the graphics are pretty cool, about the balancing we do our best to have a game fun and hard ! You spend a lot of time on Menus effects and polish to make the player have a nice experience while playing. The Penguin Animation looks exactly like we wanted to be, he is fun and good looking !

It's true we have a lot of issues with shaders and visual effects! and waste a lot of time on it!

We also have a lot of issues and the end, just when you are supposed to submit your game but anyway we made some choices and disable some effects!

We are a bit disapointed that we don't have time to make our own soundtrack and then we use a royalty free for this version.

To end this post i want to thanks my team that make an amazing job during this 72 hours, all goes fine and smooth! Thanks to Thomas Tournafol and Bastien Fernandez for art and coding with me, balancing and game designing this piece of game. Thanks to Maeva Vigier for the advices, the fonts and some arts in the end of the project!

Don't forget to rate our game and to leave a comment with your high score, unfortunatly we miss some time to include a leaderboard!

Well done all and see you newt time!
