Waiting for theme is something exciting and sharing experience around here is interesting too \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n
From my point of view, my “office” will be computer room and my first LD will be something really easy: not 48-hour programming rush, but from past contests experiences<\/a> I learned that:<\/p>\n 1) think <\/strong>is most important stuff for anything, even for programming. Write stuff on paper, play with it, even build a little prototype with pieces of paper and try to understand base mechanics. I will not do same mistake again: first\u00a0analysis, then programming!<\/p>\n 2) \u00a0try to organize my thoughts<\/strong> in a Game Design Canvas<\/a> could be a waste of time, but could also help when I’ll move to programming phase. I don’t know yet<\/p>\n 3) don’t waste time on graphics<\/strong>: I’m a programmer, so my graphics will sucks, but is only 1 on 8 judging point<\/a> ! Same point on audio \ud83d\ude00 Will my game have audio? Naah..<\/p>\n 4) what will be my central point on this LD? Innovation\/fun\/theme\/graphics\/audio\/humor ? I don’t know. And maybe is not right point. What I need is some good base mechanics and some feel of progression and more important.. a game working in only 48 hours <\/strong>\ud83d\ude00 So I need to use my time, not waste it!<\/p>\n 5) if a mechanics is too difficult to think\/use\/program, I will not use it<\/strong>, I promise!<\/p>\n I’m ready? Not yet \ud83d\ude00 Tomorrow!<\/p>","time":"December 16th, 2010 1:29 am","title":"My game will be?"}
