Finally I have managed to fix the scene graph using entity component systems, and now on to making the game. Thinking that I should be making a tower defense kind of game, but instead saving a little planet. 15 hours to end the compo, and I wanna do it in 8 hours time. :dizzy:
We are in. We are a small group of mathmetics and engineering students and are enthusiastic for gaming. We are participating in the JAM for the first time and are currently doing our best to make an entry of our own.
OH MAN 15 MORE HOURS TO GO I'M NOT GONNA MAKE IT
It's been quite a day. As usual, it all began with brainstorming, and it didn't take too long for us to settle on an idea. World physics simulation, things happening to hapless little peasants in the world - the works.
I myself sketched out a quick concept of our game world - first a doodle on my Wacom tablet, then two pixeled iterations. Since the game will take the visual world image and modify it, I've not been able to really build the world as you would with a more traditional tile set yet. It depends a lot on what features will make it into the world, since we'll have a lot of physics simulation. Instead I made a team and game logo, and designed our cards. Did I mention this is also a card game?
@daanvanyperen has been up to his neck in gravity, air, lava, water and steam physics. I don't understand how he does it. It's kinda creepy in a very impressive way.
@meatmachine and @troop have been thrown into the deep end on their first LD. While MeatMachine has been doing a few concept musical scores, he and Troop both have been padding our design document, with Troop expanding into writing dialogue. All four of us have been talking concept all day, we're getting a clear picture of what this game should be.
Now day 2 has started and I've loaded up on coffee. Hopefully more to show soon!
I'm wondering wherher to try for compo. I mean, I wasn't originally going to but, my game is playable. And I do qualify for entry seeing as I'm a solo developer. But it still has minimal graphics and no sound, needs more robust gameplay and playtesting...on second thought, probably better off sticking to jam rather than trying to cram it all into the next 15 hours.
Soo.. I was so proud for myself! I created main hero even with animation with just sprite editor in GM! Theen, i decided to start new file and actually forgot i don’t have pyxel file 😀 Sooo… Bye bye main hero! I still trying to use Recuva for finding lost sprites but i am not sure if i made it. (21% and over 300k files. Png and one folder only…) Wish me luck guys!

Most of the core mechanics of the game are done, just need to fix some bugs, and polish the game up a bit and I think we have our game.
in 2 little stage in street. Our Character lookin’ his family necklace. 2 npc and dialogue-based / QTE
What do you think?
I’ve been at it for a few hours and everything is already taking shape. You can buy: Houses, Factories, and Markets so far. You can also upgrade: Factories and Markets. Here are some screenshots!

I recently woke up (timezones :D) and it’s time to finish this. I’ll only have
10 hours out of the 15, because i’ll have school tomorrow, and i don’t want to
be tired. Good Luck everybody!
Our game may follow an unusal idea featuring a small hero in a small world.
And sorry for the repeating post earlier.:sweat_smile:
There's still a lot to add yet before it's finished but we are getting there slowly. Follow our teams twitters to see regular updates throughout development:

Progress has been quite slow, but the game is starting to shape up. Our idea is to make the world shrink in size as the player takes damage. Meaning.. the world size is player health. Oh and the level is generated on the fly!

I'm nearly done with my game. Only some fine tuning left to be done.
Play an early prerelease: http://thewgbbroz.nl/ld38/
Tell me what you think!
Is there a manual? I can't figure out the My Game page.
I have an unpublished draft of the game page, but I an't find a Publish button anywhere.
I can't figure out how to upload my project to the site. Are we still hosting our own downloads? There seems to be no slots to enter links for them, like there was on the old ludumdare.com site.
I can upload images using the upload button, but no .exe or .zip files...
I can preview, but the preview doesn't really look like a finished rendering of what my game page is supposed to look like, unless we're really supposed to just have text links to our images.
I've had a great time this weekend making my game, I can't wait to get it out there for everyone to play and rate. (We're doing ratings again, this time, aren't we?)
Finally got the Name & its SUNKEN MYSTERY. Watch the intro here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b8elHAkxjSU
When I go to my user page and click "Following" it spins forever, not showing me anything. Are others having the same problem?
