<\/a><\/p>\nMy game called \u201cOrdinary Weekdays of Tech Support of Parallel Worlds\u201d<\/a>.<\/p>\n The main rule is \u201cBe simple\u201d. I well expirienced, so I always knew how meny time I spend on each game component.<\/p>\n As always, I\u00a0 started with game idea. I spent about 1-2 hours on this. The best practice is to write down all ideas and thinking about \u201cWhat of them will not realize anyone else\u201d. Then I choose the best idea by criterias: \u201csimple to do\u201d and \u201cinteresting to play\u201d.<\/p>\n I like exploration games and made two on last LD. But at this time I had less time so I stopped at simple idea with minimum level design. Yeah, level design \u2013 most complex part in exploration games.<\/p>\n In next 2 hours I\u2019ve been programmed game mechanic basis. There is also XBOX gamepad support. And then I started with graphics. It\u2019s easy part for me because I\u2019m expirinced graphical designer. Also wih pixel-art animations. I like animate sprites and can spend slightly more time for this. In time stricitions I always used minimum frames. Often It looks coller than smother ones.<\/p>\n This is example of main character running animation.<\/p>\n Rest of the day I spend on game logic. It\u2019s the portal travel system, port\u2019s connecting, level generating, weapons and bonuses. Also one of complex parts is interface. There are many screen-text which overlay each other. And minimaps on two sides. This idea came to my by a random way when I\u2019ve been thought about screen resolution in my game. At the end of\u00a0 first day I did the huge part of the game. Except enemies. I prograamed they logic but haven\u2019t time to test it. Only one thing to make in the game at this state was port connecting:<\/p>\n The next day\u2019s morning I stated with enemies. I created four enemy types with special ability, except first dude. First enemy just walking. Here is he:<\/p>\n ONLY FOUR FRAMES!!! Third enemy can shoot. And last one teleports on short distance.<\/a>\u00a0 <\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>\u00a0 <\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>\u00a0 <\/a><\/p>\n
