I'm working on a follow-up version to the little fishing tycoon game I made for Ludum Dare 56! I'll wait until the jam is over of course before releasing anything 😊
The first order of business is definitely to improve the fish sprites. I think these read okay before but they looked a bit odd being straight on, what do you think of the new ones?
Old: Above, New: below
Hello @pov there is a glitch with "ratings given" stat showing less than what was given, I guess there was some period of time when given ratings weren't being recorded for some reason? In my case, it was showing 6 instead of 9, so I went through every game I rated and re-rated only one category per each, and now the Ratings given is a fraction 7.629, meaning that it only took into account this one category that I re-rated, while previous ones weren't recorded. So, I guess I have to re-rate every category for every game now.
Did you know that in Godot, you can select any Sprite2D, and create a polygon collider with the same shape as your sprite?
(Sprite2D > Create CollisionPolygon2D Sibling)
I used it all over my game Snail away so that my little snail could stick onto anything!
I streamed the entire jam so I decided to turn that footage into a 10m devlog documenting the progression of my game: Carniverous Corpse Aquarium! Check it out. Hopefully if the YT algo picks the vid up, it'll bring more exposure to Ludum Dare?

A new entry to the FPS genre (First Person Snooker). The squabbles don't really know how to play a game of snooker but have invited you nonetheless, mostly to stand there looking confused at you. Pick up the exercise ball and just pushe them around for a few mins.
Have a go here: Squabble Snooker
Become a Tiny Taunter and haunt this spooky mansion, driving the residents nuts! Will you manage to taunt the witches out of their minds? Or will you find a pitiful death from a plague doctor's spray?

Your objective is to annoy the residents of the mansion as much as you can. Run around using WASD or Arrow Keys and stay close to residents to get score over time. Press SPACE to taunt residents close to you, but be careful because taunting makes you stand still. Survive for as long as you can and wreak as much havoc as you can!
We'd love to hear your feedback on our game ❤️: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/56/tiny-taunters
We halfway to the 20 ratings, so any more would really help :)

So, this weekend I've been playing my LD56 entry "Mini Running Ant" on real hardware, namely the Pokémon Mini handheld console.
Tonight, I managed, to break my own high score, now at 347 points:
There is a friendly highscore competition currently running on my game page, thanks to the wonderful (and skilled!) members of the LD community. The current record is 413 points made by @samuli on emulator.
If you want to try to beat this highscore, you can play the game here: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/56/mini-running-ant
You can use any Pokemon Mini emulator, such as Pokémini, available for a wide variety of platforms (https://sourceforge.net/projects/pokemini/files/0.60/) or even as a RetroArch core. And if you have a Pokémini mini at home (and a Flashcart), you cf course use it too!
So, who can beat the current record?
Hey there, fellow mad scientists! 🧪🧟♂️
It's time to fess up – how THICC did your monstrous creation grow?! 💪👀 Did you splice together the ultimate beast with stats so wild it barely fits in your lab? 🧬👹 Or is it still a cute little abomination that needs a few more fusions before it can terrorize your enemies? 😈
Let’s see who’s rocking the beefiest, freakiest Monkepok out there! Drop a screenshot if your creation’s been hitting the stat-gain gym or chugging down that EXP protein shake! 💥💀
Remember, sanity is for quitters. 😏 Keep splicing, keep mutating, and show the world who’s the true mastermind of THICC MONSTROSITIES! 👩🔬🔥
