I\u2019m really impressed of the difference between my LD 26 and my LD 27 game.<\/p>\n<p>I felt like the theme was great, I had multiple ideas right away , but the 48h restrictions hit me hard.<\/p>\n<p>This time, i used multiple map, home made graphics ( even tough i\u2019m really BAD at it ), better collision engine ( but not perfect ), included powerup \/ weapong \/ lever.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The good<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Better understanding in SLICK2D. ( But i will probably move on to another one, libgdx )<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Good planning ( but I was a little short )<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Level Design . I enjoyed making those maps so much !<\/p>\n<p><strong>The bad<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u2013 48 hours is hard for me . I slept around 8 hours, watched some streams for 4-5 hours, barely ate but i was short in time ( I only made 10 maps, i wanted 20 ).<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Not enought Debug ( but i think it\u2019s kind of ok ). But it\u2019s not cool to find a bug a 1 am when the LD stops at 3.<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Graphics . It\u2019s better than last time, but god i\u2019m slow and not good at it \u2026 Lots of improvment to do here.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Overall<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m pretty happy with my game. It\u2019s something i\u2019ll be proud to show to someone. This weekend was exhausting, but F*ck it,\u00a0 it was worth it.<\/p>\n<p>So if you wanna try it , here is my game : <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/ludum-dare-27\/?action=preview&amp;uid=21404\" title=\"Test Chamber\">Test Chamber<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Enjoy &amp; a big thank you to LudumDare once again!<\/p>","time":"August 26th, 2013 7:45 am","title":"LD 27 \u2013 Review","title_was_empty":false}
