Humble Beginnings

At 3 and a half hours in, the game idea has been brewing well, and once again, I decided to create a platformer game. This one will explore a creature from outside of time, entering a world in which humankind spends 10 seconds doing things, and carries on normally, while the game character experiences chunks of 10 seconds at a time in slow motion throughout the progress of the game.

I haven’t gathered enough life events yet that would take 10 seconds. However, the plan is going very very well for the time I have spent so far.

Thankful for a colleague to be keeping me company on the livestream! It helps to know that there is someone on the other end of the chat experiencing the same Ludum Dare crunch as myself.

I decided to head to bed for now, sleep on my idea, and gather level ideas for tomorrow. So far, this is progressing better than I had hoped! WOW!

All the pieces laid out on the desktop. Progressing very nicely! ^_^

Sounds awesome. Sorry I missed your livestream; I decided to participate after all, so I was streaming myself!
