Basically you need to jump &amp; shrink your way through the different obstacles.. collect more time.. and make it to the end of each level.<\/p>\n <p>Hope you&#8217;ll give it a go!<\/p>\n <p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/ludum-dare-27\/?action=preview&amp;uid=25869\">http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/ludum-dare-27\/?action=preview&amp;uid=25869<\/a><br \/>\n <strong><br \/>\n Postmortem:<\/strong><\/p>\n <p>The good:<br \/>\n Figured i&#8217;d talk a little about my experience in my first ever game jam as an artist!<br \/>\n I really enjoyed the experience and surprisingly actually had fun with the pressure of making a game in a limited time period. I worked for the first time with programmer Abel Toy.. a cool dude that let me come up with the concept for the game and then helped improve upon the idea. I am really happy with how it turned out.. and feel *gasp* proud of what myself and abel were able to accomplish. I think we did a decent job at working with the theme.. which at first I despised =).. but luckily we managed to come up with something pretty fun!<\/p>\n <p>I was really worried that I wouldn&#8217;t be able to make enough art in such a short time period.. or anything decent looking.. since I tend to usually end up being way too much of an obsessive weirdo at times.. but I happily surprised myself.. and the jam made me realize how much i have improved over this past summer especially on how I can now make things quicker than i used to be able to.. the awesome part about the jam is it happened right before i have to go back to college for my last year.. the jam kept my mind off of that and also made me feel like I accomplished something pretty cool this summer.. since before the jam i was a bit in a funk.. and also got to connect with a lot of cool people that also participated.<\/p>\n <p>Also was happy with the music that was created by\u00a0Rekcahdam &amp; feel it really fits the mood of the game.<\/p>\n <p>The bad:<br \/>\n Unfortunately we didnt get to finish the menu\/level select screen\/boss level or add sfx.. (but! that&#8217;s alright! since awesomely Abel and I plan on continue working on the game.. so eventually there will be a pretty nifty game made out of it. which.. i am really excited about since I think there is a good amount more to explore with the concept.. plus I really am enjoying making the art for it since I get to come up with weird stylized pixel art.. my favorite thing to do!)<\/p>\n <p>really it was just an entirely positive experience for me\/us.<\/p>\n <p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/shrink.gif\"><img alt=\"shrink\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/shrink.gif\" width=\"52\" height=\"88\" \/><\/a>\u00a0&#8211;\u00a0 thanks from all of us!<\/p>\n <p>Art: Brian Callahan (@futuristteletex)<br \/>\n Programming: Abel Toy (@abel_toy)<br \/>\n Music: Rekcahdam (@rekcahdam)<\/p>","time":"August 27th, 2013 3:59 pm","title":"Tri-Deca (postmortem)"}
