Plan for this Weekend – Mini-LD Dry Run (Hopefully)

I, like quite a few people, thought that the Mini-LD was this weekend. (It’s not, though)

However, I already had an idea for a game I wanted to make, and I’m still making that game, still making it this weekend.

What I aim to do is start some time today and finish some time Monday evening. (I will use a similar time frame for my Mini-LD game) I will use AS3, and an SVG rendering library I found.

I was going to use pixel sprites, but I… I just don’t like them. I like making vector images, and they’re much more flexible.

My warmup game uses a play off of a tangent from the Mini-LD theme: I’m taking something that is usually scary and making it cute. (Not cutesy fluffy bunny cute, but still cute)

The game is about a demon girl trying to save a jar of cookies from Evil Robots. (Goodness knows what the robots want with the cookies, they might just be trying to start trouble)

The protagonist (Whose name is Luna) has a powered armor suit which is what allows her to fight robots. The game may feature multiple armors, but I’m not sure whether it will.

I’m hoping that this game turns out well. It’d be really nice to finally have a finished project, too. (Up to me entirely, I know, but still worth saying)
