This LD was a lot of fun. It was my first LD I made together with my wife and our first project we did as a team. It was very hard at the beginning to find something we could make out of the theme but after a day of intense thinking we decided to make a point and click adventure. We both like point and click adventures.

After that first decision we had another to do. How we part the work…

That wasn’t much of a decission because in that point we know each other very well. Because I love her drawings and writings, she draw the characters and the writes the story. My task was it to write the code and animate the drawings.

Sadly there were two things left. Music and sound… This point I wanted to do after beeing ready with the game. But because I was working until the deadline to get everything ready, music and sound was canceled.

After releasing the Treasure Quest we were super proud of us. But when submission hour had begun and the first feedback came in, we have had a big problem. Errors…

Because I just tested the game in firefox and firefox didn’t tell me that there was a problem with a function declaration chrome, safari and everything else denied service. Fixing that error didn’t took so long, but it was a shocking moment for us.

Now, after a little cooling down and reading our feedback we are lucky to have done the step of working together. We are proud of the story, the graphics, the characters and the mechanics but, we’ve also pointed out 3 main cruelties we’ve done to you. The textspeed, the font and the lack of sound and music. I hope you can forgive us. :] We are working on a post jam version. The textboxes and the font are ready and we just have to do some music.

We will let you know if it’s ready, till then we hope you enjoy the jam version and have a lot of fun playing it.
