Finally done

Finally done and submitted. This being my first Ludum Dare I must say it was quite a lot of fun. I’m pretty happy with the result although the game could’ve been more polished. I’ve also never done a roguelike before so this was indeed an interesting experience.

And behold the greatest game name ever: The Grand Quest for The Potato Salad.

I ended up making the game using Irrlicht and SFML2 for audio. Also added Oculus Rift-support but it’s of course optional.

I guess the biggest issues was trying to make music – I’m the most unmusical person there is. The plan was to first use eJay but when I finally got to it I noticed that my trial had ended. So after lots of pondering I ended up using something called PixiTracker. For sound effects I used bfxr.

During the first day I recorded a timelapse but forgot to put the recorder on during the second day. Anyway, the video is available here.

Sleep…
