I woke up this morning and spent about half an hour getting ideas. I eventually chose an idea, and I&#8217;ve stuck with it since! Right now I&#8217;ve done absolutely no art whatsoever (so every asset is a delicious placeholder), but the code is almost 100% complete. My game is fully playable, including a win state, upgrades, enemies and other funky stuff.<\/p>\n <div id=\"attachment_164284\" style=\"width: 560px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img class=\"size-large wp-image-164284\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/screenShot1-550x507.png\" alt=\"I &lt;3 squares\" width=\"550\" height=\"507\" srcset=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/screenShot1-300x276.png 300w, http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/screenShot1-550x507.png 550w, http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/screenShot1.png 650w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">I &lt;3 squares<\/p><\/div>\n <p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n <p>There&#8217;s quite a lot going on here. Basically you&#8217;re a creature that decided to attack a random planet. The planet defends itself, while you evolve (upgrade ;D) to become stronger, until you&#8217;re completely maxed out &#8211; at this point, you can destroy the planet. It gets pretty hectic! I&#8217;m also quite proud of myself, since this is the first game where I&#8217;ve used a lot of maths for the core mechanics. All of the orbiting and shooting is great fun! \ud83d\ude00<\/p>","time":"August 25th, 2012 7:37 am","title":"How\u2019s it going?"}
