Got me a game concept!

Sat opposite @wisstopher having brewed a hot cup of tea and an even hotter game concept! "EYE SEE DEMONS"

More to come...

we are doing well!

Here is a little art to show the principle of this team, we are looking for a robot theme... I don't want to say much more, thank you for being part of this team!

Protect your wimpy body!

This guy is my "Wannabe Warlock", the working title for the game concept I've devised. Elevator pitch is "summon and maintain demons to protect you from enemies". Working on fleshing out some basic mechanics tonight, then I'll sleep on it.Wizard.png

Good Night :)

This seems to be how all my first nights of jams start out. Triangles and circles :D Radius.jpg First day.jpg

My new engine/editor! ️

Since this is the first time actually creating a game with my new engine and editor I'm pleasantly surprised nothing major went wrong yet. This jam will be a great test to see if it's capable enough for a simple game! 😄

I'm In!

It's been a while since my last time, but I'm ready for a new challenge. And I love theme!

I'll be using Godot this time. I'm thinking about doing a 2D game with magic duels. Or something like that.

Best luck everyone!

its gnome time

So far, so far

Gotta concept I like. Summoning wildlife, starting with bees.

Procrasticoded a bit, fixed the full screen handling in my little template.

Already having doubts about c++. No doubt I'd be more productive in Godot, but I know that when things go wrong in godot, it's a mistery to me -- not a recipe for a good time when the chips are down. More work, but less secrets. I guess time will tell if this is the right call or not.

Time to make some programmer art.

First time trying LD!

Super excited! Very satisfied with the menu drafts I've got going. proto1.gif

The idea

The idea is to play a cat that needs to kill his time/boredom outside until food is ready, catching birds, mice and fish in the process. Once food is ready, the owner will yell out "Fooooood", and then the player needs to traverse the level back (platformer), to get to it's food asap!

We are in!

So excited to participate! We've been doing this since 2015 and love it!

Summoning it is!

Time to sit down and get some ideas going.

Maybe I'll use Unity ECS and DOTS to "summon" lots of things?

Let's gooo

Making some good progress a few hours in with our magical summoning style word game. We're also streaming our progress if anyone is curious.
