LD 43 November 30–December 3, 2018

What would you sacrifice to save your little baby?

I really had fun making Sacrificial Love A small game about sacrificing your rest time to defend your child from hordes of zombies attacking your house. How long can you last?

Clicking the Replay Button

After much success on Do It for Their Sake (cough cough https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/43/do-it-for-their-sake cough), I've decided that Ludum Dare is something I'm going to try again. Not because I made a crap game, but because of the idea I came up with. Thank you Ludum Dare for helping make a finished product. :)

Quick Reminder: Set your Itch download settings correctly

Just a quick reminder for those hosting on Itch.io (strongly recommended anyway) to set their executables to Windows/Linux/whatever download.

People like me, who like to use the Itch client, will not be able to start your game if that flag is not set.

After you fixed your settings, play some Omicron Fleet, why don't you.

I have some questions about Workflow.

I have a few doubts on how do you people manage large geoup workflows for a Game Jam. Do you guys n' girls use tools like Trello? do you use GIT? Any other tool that you think that is usefull for a game jam? What are your general group workflow? Is trello or git a waste of time? Share your thoughts!

Blood Sweat and Taxes, Web Edition!

I just released a Web (HTML5) port of my LD43 submission "Blood Sweat and Taxes", check it out here: https://falseincarnate.itch.io/blood-sweat-and-taxes

Additionally, I want to make a special shout-out to all those noble players who take the time to report bugs and issues they encounter. Your selfless acts are definitely appreciated, and directly enabled me to release a bug-fixed version of my game that resolved some menu display issues and a potential crash! Sacrifices must be made, but you guys go above and beyond!

Fixed my Game, Poverty Farmer!

After a week of finals and no time to code, I've finally fixed the glitches of my game (all the known ones at least). It still doesn't work for Mac or Linux for some reason, but the game is fixed non-the-less! Here's a link to the updated version! And remember, please run the game in 1024x768!

And here's a link to the original Ludum Dare post: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/43/poverty-farmer

I hope you enjoy it! As always, I'm open to feedback, and I hope to keep working on this game! Please give the game a vote too! Thanks!

Check out my game!

You delete files and the game assets disappear. Fun right?!

Do you like space and pixels?

In the tradition of 2d shoot'em up we made a game with pixels and angry aliens.

--Nevertheless you can't fire any bullets-- So try to avoid the aliens assault and reach the core of their mothership to sacrifice your own ship.

Good luck space cowboys: ->https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/43/lastcrifices

Please don't call your work "crap"

I've seen some people making blog posts that equate to something like: "Hey, play my crappy game!" And I personally think one should refrain from writing about their work like that, for two reasons:

  • It's instinctively clear to the person reading that the game itself likely isn't completely crap, given that the creator is asking for it to be played. But it displays a lack of confidence in the project that will ultimately put people off from approaching it. You can acknowledge your project's weaknesses, but focus on the strengths! Entice people to play it, rather than offer an easy way out not to!
  • Effort and time into the project was put into it. Even if you genuinely believe it turned out horrific and can't find any strengths to speak of, the project isn't worthless. Simply ask for feedback, without putting yourself down. In addition to making the game more likeable to people, it's also a good way to look at things in general. It was a Jam game. It wasn't made to be a masterpiece.

Rocket Sheep

Finally, a game to fulfil your dreams of being a suicidal sheep. Might as well be sacrificed to the lord...
