Slime Quest – Post Mortem

 

You can play my game Slime Quest by clicking this text witch is obviously a link.


 

My game this Ludum Dare is a puzzle platformer that I cleverly titled Slime Quest where you have to solve puzzles to regain your form after being cursed by a wizard.

Not really sure what to put in one of these things, this is my first post mortem despite this being my 6th Ludum Dare.

The Good:

  • I had a relatively smooth experience this dare, I was able to sleep for 7 hours the first day (never again)
  • Was very happy with most of the levels in the game.
  • My art and animations (excluding the random dev textures left in) were the best I have ever done for a Dare.
  • I think it’s fun…

The Bad:

  • Spent a bit too long sleeping caused me to not be able to finish some of the art.
  • The controls can be confusing (especially when scaling walls)
  • Transition animations and buttons can be very glitchy.
  • A few bugs that I fixed were annoying and I could have avoided them very easily

The Ugly:

  • So many blue screens
  • Blue screens everywhere
  • While submitting a blue screen.
  • After fixing bugs blue screen.
  • After fixing blue screens blue screens.
