Might be going somewhere tomorrow, so my time might be a little limited, but I\u2019m pretty sure I have an idea and will be able to complete a prototypeish version of it.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve decided on a resource-gathering game, where the goal is to gather the most material within a time limit. During this time period you must place collectors, manually collect, and cut off your enemy\u2019s collectors from material supplies. Pretty simple, but the levels are looking varied enough that it should turn out to be pretty fun to play with a friend. (Probably not going to code AI.)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/galacticgaming.net\/hosting\/ludum\/MLD20\/\">The levels are procedurally generated<\/a> (ooh, buzzword) and so will be the collection units\u2019 graphics. Also, I hope to make a special vector font system that offsets all line segment points to create a font that never uses the same glyph twice\u2013every character having unique offsets within it. If you didn\u2019t notice at the beginning of this paragraph, you can see my level generator in action <a href=\"http:\/\/galacticgaming.net\/hosting\/ludum\/MLD20\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Can\u2019t wait until tomorrow! I think I\u2019ll be able to finish this project.<\/p>\n<p class=\"postmetadata alt\">\n<small>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tThis entry was posted\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\ton Friday, July 16th, 2010 at 11:29 pm\t\t\t\t\t\tand is filed under <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/category\/minild\/minild-20\/\" rel=\"category tag\" title=\"View all posts in MiniLD #20\">MiniLD #20<\/a>.\n\t\t\t\t\t\tYou can follow any responses to this entry through the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/2010\/07\/16\/minild-20-im-in\/feed\/\">RSS 2.0<\/a> feed.\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tYou can <a href=\"#respond\">leave a response<\/a>, or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/2010\/07\/16\/minild-20-im-in\/trackback\/\" rel=\"trackback\">trackback<\/a> from your own site.\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/small>\n<\/p>","time":"July 16th, 2010 11:29 pm","title":"MiniLD #20: I\u2019m in.","title_was_empty":false}
