LD 44 Postmortem - Operation Cartwheel

Hey All,

Rocktavious from Red Owl Games here - We had a fun LD44, didn't get as much done with our game as we would have liked (and we had travel plans post LD and then the whole family got sick so we didn't get much time to play other LD games) but it was a huge learning experience for us as a team. Since LD44 finished up we've been looking at what's next for Red Owl Games and we've finally decided on a direction.

We posted in a subreddit /r/gameideas looking for a coop game idea from the community. I'm here today to let you know we've chosen an idea and you can read more about it in our blog post https://redowlgames.com/blog/project-three and join our discord https://discord.gg/7TKhQXg to chat and eventually help us beta test it!

The game idea is (drum-roll please): "A Defender-style side-scrolling shmup, but the top half of the screen is the sky and the bottom half is underwater. One player flies a plane up top, the other pilots a submarine on the bottom."

Tentative Title: Operation Cartwheel

Time Frame: Approximately five months

Working Cycles: 2-3 two week sprints per cycle, for a total of about 4 cycles

Start Date: May 12, 2019

End Date: September 30, 2019

Cheers!
