“Heavy Metal Detector” Postmortem

“Heavy Metal Detector” is a game about an old rocker who’s looking for his metal beneath the surface of the beach.

Total Dev Time: 12 Hours 35 Minutes

Successes

  • Got to do pixel art for my game for the first time
  • Recorded my own “music” and sound effects
  • Learned about Audacity and used it
  • Learned about animating sprites in Unity

Challenges

  • Tripping on some simple script in Unity. ie having a gameobject be able to play multiple audio sources.
  • Sprites look very rough, environment could have used more action in it.
  • Gameplay is really simple (I aimed to do a simple game, but maybe this is too simple?)

I really enjoyed doing the pixel art between the coding. I’m currently refining my skills in that. I think this community is really awesome and I did enjoy playing other developers’ games. I look forward to Augusts’ LD!

Thank you for reading!
