LD 42 August 10–13, 2018

Im in!

This is my first Ludum dare!

I'm going to be using Gamemaker 2, GIMP, Audacity And bfxr.net.

Join Me at https://www.twitch.tv/andaron_noob

ProjectMakerser ist auch mit dabei!

German:

Und wie Ihr dem Titel entnehmen könnt sind auch wir (dazu zählt der liebe Garfilexx, mh-studios und meine Wenigkeit) mit dabei. Ich muss gestehen, dass ich zu Beginn nicht sehr angetan war, von der Idee bei der 42. Ludum Dare – Game Jam mitzumachen. Aber die zwei mitzumachen lagen mir so in den Ohren mit diesem Thema, das ich eigentlich keine andere Wahl habe… Hier schonmal unser Ludum Dare Profil.

Sei es, wie es ist, wenn wir schon mit machen, dann richtig! Ich werde auf dem gewohnten Twitch-Kanal. Streamen und Euch natürlich die 72 Stunden über immer am laufenden halten (ein oder zweimal werden wir ca. 5-6 Std. offline sein zum Schlafen)! Wenn Ihr mh-studios beim Erstellen der Grafiken zusehen wollt, könnt Ihr das auf seinem extra dafür gegründeten Twitch-Kanal machen.

English (Google Translate save my Time^^):

And as you can see from the title, we too (including the dear Garfilexx, mh-studios and myself) are part of it. I must confess that at the beginning I was not very happy to get involved with the idea of the 42nd Ludum Dare - Game Jam. But the two of them were so in my ears with this topic that I really have no choice ... Here is our Ludum Dare profile.

Be that as it is, if we already do it, then right! I'll go on the familiar Twitch Channel. Stream and of course keep you up to date for 72 hours (once or twice we'll be offline for about 5-6 hours to sleep)! If you want to watch mh-studios creating the graphics, you can do that on his specially created twitch channel.

Third time's the charm they say

I'm pretty happy about my last game, but let's try to kick it up a few notches...

Not doing too well so far, though 😅 - way too little general purpose code prepped for a game even though I've sworn I'd get the basic stuff like the main menu out off the way - updating VS and/or Unity right before the event - way too much pizza sauce ready and pizza dough being prepped as I write

So like...we are all ready

can we go pls?

ik ik nobody wants to go yet...just did everything I need to do ALREADY.

3rd LD (9th jam) and 1st time on europe central time!

yay! happy to not have to put a stupid alarm clock in the middle of the night and then not be able to fallback asleep.again because ideas thrive in my head!

these year tools :

unity + playmaker +

phoroshop/paint.net +

maybe magicavoxel +

maybe bfxr +

lot of yerba mate

good luck to all !

woooO

im in for the 12th(i think?) time as always i plan to make something super simple but we know that never happens

also in spirit of open source here is some dumb server code that ive copy pasted together for online highscores and such

good luck, have fun

I'm in

It'll be my first time so i'll try do my best c:

I'm in

I think this is my 3rd or maybe 4th LD. Haven't really done any game dev for the past 2-3 years, so I'm excited to get back into it.

I'll be using Unity, Visual Studio, GIMP, Audacity, BFXR, and possibly Blender.

PoQA Games is in!

My game jam group, PoQA Games, is in for our 9th 'official' jam. PoQA stands for "Power of QA", since we were all game testers when we first formed.

  • Designer: Derrick Powell
  • Programmer: Tanner Johnson
  • Art/UI: Tina Zhang-Powell
  • Audio: Victor Hallock

We'll be making a game in Unity. Although we'll be participating in the jam, we'll voluntarily observe a 48-hour limit.

im in

i will be using pico8

Im In!

Probably gonna use Unity and blender, maybe photoshop and illustrator, and bfrx for sound, dont really know yet

Third Time's A Charm

So, it's that time again is it?

We'll be entering our third Ludum Dare (second in a row) This time we will be using Godot for the first time after having used Unity3D for the first two. We feel more comfortable with the entire Godot workflow and hopefully this will result in a better game.

This time we will also hopefully avoid any injuries that will lead to massive time loss (one team member broke a leg during a break from programming last time)

Tools we will use:

  • Engine: Godot 3
  • Art: Gimp, Pyxel Edit, Aseprite (Blender if we go 3D)
  • Audio: Audacity, FLStudio
  • VC: BitBucket with Sourcetree

Team Members: @Ranzor and @ThatSommes

My first jam

This will be my first Ludum Dare, we'll be using sjgl, a Java 2D game library I made myself and Krita for painting as well as lmms for music and maybe bfxr.net or audacity for sound fx.

Im in.

Just me and my bong. Im thinking to try Java + LWJGL but probably Im going with Unity

Good luck for everyone 🙆‍♂️

FIRST MARMELADE

THIS IS MY FIRST JAM AND I WANNA BE THE VERY BEST LIKE NO ONE EVER WAS.

IM DESPERATE

and i cant draw but nvmd

hello hello

Hello!

Just a bit over 2 hours before the fun starts!

Not too long until the theme gets revealed.
I want to take this opportunity to talk a little about the final -1/0/+1 votes I made.

Legend: 👍 = +1 👎 = -1

  • Running out of space 👎 I dunno, I think this would lead to a lot of inventory management games.
  • Night is coming 👎 I think this kind of theme is overdone.
  • Decay 👎 Wouldn't know what to make of this.
  • Safe in the dark 👎 Hm, could either lead to interesting stealth mechanic games or common light/shadow puzzles.
  • Fragile 👍 I think this one has potential. Fragile is something you can bend a lot, be it phyiscal things that easily break or even the mind of a human being.
  • You are the final boss 👎 As of right now I can't think of any fun and manageable gameplay for this.
  • Evolve 👎 Really?
  • Light is key 👎 The same as with Safe in the dark - would lead to a lot of light based puzzlers.
  • Death is useful 👍 Another fun theme you can bend the definition towards ones liking.
  • Two points of view 👍 This makes me think of some interesting gameplay mechanics with having different camera angles or even 2 player controlled characters.
  • Dying planet 👎 Uh.
  • It's spreading 👎 What is spreading? Marmelade on a bun?
  • 3 Rules 👍 You do not talk about fight club. You do not talk about fight club. You do not... wait, what? How about breaking the rules?
  • One enemy only 👎 Not sure how to feel about this exactly.
  • One minute 👎 Meh, way too generic for my liking.
  • You control the environment, not player 👎 While it could be a fun theme, I also think it would result in lots of generic puzzle games.

Okay. You probably think a lot different on most themes than I do, but what should I say... that's life and humans for you. Whatever theme gets picked in the end, I'm sure I will come up with a fun and feasible game concept to build within 48 hours. So will you! <3
