My entry: The most beautiful day of her life<\/h2>\n

Goals before the jam<\/h2>\n

As usual with a game jam, the main goal is to release a complete (playable) game in the time allowed.
\n For this peculiar Ludum Dare (#28) I was hoping to enter\/release my game in time for the compo (48h) for the first time. At worst, I was OK to enter the jam (72h) the main goal being to release.
\n I was also aiming at having fun, as much as possible.
\n I was also considering entering @McFunkypants<\/a> usual side challenge. This time #NoKill.
\n There shouldn’t be death in my game.<\/p>\n

\"A<\/a>

A bride has to slap and purse her way out of bimbos to get to the church<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Theme revealed<\/h2>\n

And as usual (especialy for the LD) on the theme reveal, it’s the time to freak out, be at first angry with the votes results, cursing all the people and their voting ways and considering not being a part of this LD\/not making a game.
\n “You only get one”.
\n As I twitted at some point, at least it wasn’t “Justin Bieber <3” which happened to be one of the possible themes and just shows, in my opinion, how broken the theming choice system is.
\n Then after a few reflection and discussion with my lady friend Nyx, I was able to have a global idea of the game I was going for.
\n A kind of beat them all around the theme “you only have one chance to save your wedding” where the player would control a woman that needs to slap her way out of bimbos to get to the man of her dreams.
\n From this theme, very cartoony and over-the-top stereotypical I was aiming to make a fun game that wouldn’t take itself seriously.<\/p>\n

\"Jumping<\/a>

Jumping over cars, a healthy practice before getting married, isn’t it ?<\/p><\/div>\n
