<\/a><\/p>\nLet\u2019s get it\u00a0out of the way first why\u00a0I didn\u2019t submit anything: the point of LD for me is to get insightful comments about what to improve, and the flaws were obvious to me already. It\u2019s like, yeah I get it, it\u2019s confusing and feels unfinished, cause it is. If I don\u2019t find the gameplay appealing myself, there\u2019s no point in having the community\u00a0repeat that to me.<\/p>\n
I clearly focused on the wrong stuff on the weekend. My sweet AI patterns didn\u2019t end up mattering in the end. I sorta forgot I was making\u00a0an arcade game, and swamped myself by bringing too complex behaviour into it. Such a Jwatt thing to do. People don\u2019t care about the AI doing a dance, they just wanna shoot some bad guys and rack up points.<\/p>\n
By the time I\u2019d reduced the thing to a \u201cHuman Tetris with random encounters\u201d\u00a0like it should\u2019ve been from the start,\u00a0everything was a mess, and there was no time left to fix the game\u00a0(or to thoroughly playtest it). So I figured I\u2019ll continue working outside of the\u00a0event with a \u201csoft reset\u201d mindset.\u00a0The main mechanics and many of my enemy\u00a0designs\u00a0are still functional and reusable, after all.<\/p>\n
Importantly, there\u2019s still a community interested in\u00a0playtesting\u00a0it, and some have even suggested putting a price tag on it once it\u2019s done. I\u2019m not big on monetizing my games, but I do see the point; it could be a neat touchscreen\u00a0game, considering your main interaction is literally an analogue for swiping. And it\u2019s not like difficult to build for Android with Love2D.<\/p>\n
Not to mention Love2D\u2019s\u00a0sweet shader FX brah didn\u2019t you say you owned a GPU?? We can like 60 FPS on your GPU if you don\u2019t mind??? 60 FPS on the\u00a0\u201cP.C.\u201d console forever???<\/p>\n
