32 hours Update
Quick progress update.
Love the theme! It didnt take long to settle on a game idea, which is similar to my attempted (but failed) game for Ludum Dare 40. But just like with any/all gamejams it seems, Ive run into some delays. I'll be doing the Jam for sure this time D:
The prototype scene didnt take long to get setup yesterday and currently Ive got a nice little modular ship that drops from a space station, goes through an orbital descent and levels out at a target altitude.
The ship has some nice shiny shields, theres some enemy ships to shoot at and Ive got some of the basics of combat working - hope to show that off in the next post when combat is a bit more interesting!
I post on twitter quite a bit during a jam, if youre interesting following (and seeing higher quality gifs): https://twitter.com/Alex_ADEdge

Shields up!
