... and I'm pretty happy with the progress so far!
Managed to not do a lot of polishing already like in previous LDs but instead concentrate on the core gameplay loop and I'm strangely proud of that fact :) (except for screenshake, gotta have early screenshake in there ^^)
I got a game that is pretty much fully playable and quite fun already, but the todo-list is still quite long. Before this day really ends for me I'll try to make some music, and tomorrow is mostly about visuals and polish. Might add one or two more mechanics still though.
Hope you're all having a great time and getting along nicely! Looking forward to all those games that I will inevitably play, without that much more delay :)

It's going well enough with our egg society (just noticed: no eggs in this picture). Idea feels a bit overly ambitious, but i always like the challenge.

Road and building placement is done and works nicely, but no goods are produced or transported yet - not to think of attack/defend mechanisms. Will be a close one! But we got a super team assembled - details later :D

This is my first Ludum Dare, I'm not entirely sure if I can finish everything in 72 hours, however, there is at least the Extra category. Today I added the basic mechanic to the game.

Made some good progress on day 1. Most of the gameplay and art is finished, will focus on music, sound effects and levels tomorrow.

Here is a GIF of the DEMO Level:

Excited to be doing this game jam with @Clairric and @Cinsynate again! Animations are starting to shape up~!

I abandoned my own project and have instead joined 2 others in making a game. I'm doing the music. In our game the player has to keep a fire going and there's a day and night cycle.

The music ended up being a bit more upbeat than intended, and for some reason it reminds me of both Kirby and the old Star Tropics games on the NES. And there's a bit of latin influence in there too it seems.

listen on Clyp.it

The team did a lot of drawing, animating, designing and coding!
Looks like a good time to call it a day.

Stages of game jam:

Stage 1: Damn, so much work ahead, feels impossible
Stage 2: This doesn’t make any sense, we’ll probably fail this time
Stage 3: Hey, this is actually moving along better than expected
Stage 4: Wtf, how did we pull this off?

Stage ?: Not sure, just sleepy (—> WE’RE HERE <—)

Making progress, come check out our build a bear game!

The main graphics are done and will be implemented soon. It's been a looong day, haha.

This morning's mockup Current mockup version

What's next:

Code: Respawn Art: Enemy and barrier graphics

Everyone on our team is working hard on making an awesome game. We decided to go for an endless-runner kind of game (a little bit like Doodlejump).

@hacktier is working on the player model: A fox. The model is finished, and we are currently working on rigging and animations.

@mk-awesome is working on the background graphics for our game. For this he made scribbles on paper and recreates those scenes in illustrator:

And I am working in Unity and preparing the game code itself for all the models / graphics. The core game-loop is finished (jumping, collecting pickups, gameover, highscores, etc.) and now I am working on implementing more platform types and pickups:

I am scrapping my idea entirely. i do not have time ti make it even fun, much less decent. so, I have another idea to get it done

A simple virus defender roguelike. You play as a leukocyte and have to destroy the viruses as long as possible.
