It is less a not-game, more not a game \u2013 just a trial to make my art skills better and implementing it with XNA (checking out a particle system etc.).<\/p>\n<p>What happens on the screen isn\u2019t previously rendered. There is a background-image for the room. The lamp has an own graphic which is moved as well as the light on the floor. The two guys have own images too (if I had the time, I would animate them\u2026). Even the clock\u2019s hand is done by rotating a small line instead of animating the clock (it makes absolutely no sense to implement it on this way : D). Additionally, yellow particles are applied.<\/p>\n<p>The background-music is done via <a href=\"http:\/\/inudge.net\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"iNudge\">iNudge<\/a>, graphics with Gimp and programming with XNA (Visual Studio Express C#). I used a personal library (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.stevencolling.com\/downloads\/mini_ld_37\/gb2d.zip\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"GB2D\">GB2D<\/a>) which I progress on from Ludum Dare competition to competition.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>You can play\u2026 ehm\u2026 watch the game <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/minild-37\/?action=preview&amp;uid=7211\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Loss of Control\">here<\/a>.<\/p>","time":"September 23rd, 2012 11:48 am","title":"Loss of Control (MiniLD)"}
