I really didn't want to do this, but since there's little time left and I'm still at least seven votes off from getting any score at all, I guess I'll do one of those vote-begging posts. I haven't even posted anything at all this time around, so I don't feel quite as bad.

This was my 6h Ludum Dare and, imo, the game turned out pretty good, although family problems cost me most of day 2...

For the sake of adding some value to this post at least, here's stuff I planned to do, but didn't get around to:

• More content (the game can currently be beaten in like <2 minutes)
• Some music (at least a simple background melody)
• Better art (the current player sprite was really just supposed to be a placeholder and a lot of the objects look pretty bland. I didn't even get around to adding a walking animation!)
• A proper ending
• getting rid of a few glitches/flaws in the level layout

That's it, I guess. Here's a screenshot:

You know what? I guess I could have one of those word clouds made too! (I removed the word "game" btw)

And finally, here's the link to my game! Please play it and vote! I promise it won't take long!

Come and try LLama's World, c'mon! It's your last chance!

Idea

Our idea was to make a game where you are a boy who fights with his friends from the neighborhood. Also, we decided to do it in 2D. Our goal was to make simple but eye-catching arts that could fit our game.

Concept arts

The basic idea was to make a cute kid. @moono, as our 2D graphic, made some simple concepts.

To make the process of creation simple we've chosen kids not facing directly a right side.

Perfecting

The next step was coloring and giving some life to art. At first, we didn't think about coloring boys with random colors. With that in mind we developed this:

Below you can see another character made for the first prototype of the game.

In the middle of the event, we decided to give our boys some more colors. The idea behind it is simple. We desaturated characters' parts to make them gray and then, inside a Unity, gave a random tint color for those sprites.

Result

At the end, we are happy with the result. Our characters have some unique style and they are quite cool.

After finishing up my quick 6 hour project in my hotel room I resumed my holiday and almost completely forgot about Ludum Dare until this weekend. I suddenly realize that the judging period is ending on wednesday and I have only got two votes. So I spent this weekend playing and rating games like crazy and is almost now at 20 ratings in each category. Would be nice to get a nice last push over the finish line. So I would appreciate if you took a little bit of time and played my game: Parvus Mundi

I've played THIS game, and it deserves some love, because I genuinely think that it's really good.

It appears to have really small number of votes and the developer apparently didn't vote any games.

So if anyone knows @swrni please tell them to go vote so he can get a score and perhaps begin or continue theirs game dev.

I haven't been able to find anything about them but if this is really theirs twitter, it's really sad and they deserve some love from us.

SO PLEASE, stop self-promoting and go vote theirs game

I've even generated a word cloud for him :smiley: :heart: :heart:

This is going to be boring stuff, so if you are not interested in philosophical breakdown, keep scrolling.

I just feel I have to share this thought.

I am no veteran to LD, so I hope it is not too cheeky to talk about this. I tried to write this is a way that I wouldn't sound like cliché old-man-hipster, who says "Back in my day...", but I guess I didn't make it.

My point is, I have always loved Ludum Dare for it's small and friendly community. It always felt as if no one was egoistic about their own games, but they just enjoyed the hype of the others and the great mood of the event itself. Even obvious shitty games were rated nicely and politely and everyone was helpful and friendly.

I don't know why, but this year it seems almost as if LD went viral (I hope this is the right expression) and too many people came here to try it out... which is awesome... but on the other hand, it also lured those who are here only for shitposting ("PLS RATE MY GAME! FAST!!!" ...you get my point...) and negative comments, which I have never seen before on LD event.

I'm really glad that LD went this famous (game entries are almost doubled this time!), but I also fear, that in few years this event will be spread throughout the world so much, that there will be 100 000 game entries, and the whole mood of a small friendly community will turn into "YouTube-like /Reddit-like" huge population of trolls and negative people.

Ok, I have made new version of main Hero - barbarian. When I don't have to rush I can spent more time for painting. Meet new barbarian. And you can compare it with old one. That I made for LD.

unforunatly we couldn't use new hero in the post-jam build. There will be a lot of work to make new physical model for the hero.

You can play and rate our game here: Come on, barbarian!

Sorry for promoting my game, but it still didn't reach the requied 20 ratings! Please, if you have time, try it and leave feedback!
