The Last Battery

As my first Ludum Dare submission ever, I made a goofy game only with HTML and CSS (no JavaScript).

The world needs your help to keep the last battery from running out of energy.

RulesQuest: a game with 5 characters who must adapt to different rules each game

So this is Rulesquest, i've been working on it since yesterday. The game is a very simple RPG farming simulator. You are the white king. There are 4 other kings you must defeat to win. Each has their own tactics that you must discover while you play.spr_header.png

The gameplay itself is just moving with arrow keys or WASD, and picking up items with space bar. Quite simple.

Current State at the Coffee Front

Here's how far I've come so far:

I have a working system of winning/losing the game and am currently trying to balance everything (earning money, drinking coffee, brewing coffee, pouring coffee into the cup, ... You get the idea).

My goal is to get upgrades working in the next few hours, but we'll see. Anyways, I am already pleased with having a playable game right now.

We got a main character

Content is coming along nicely, we finally have a picture of our main character: Princess Sophia. PrinzessinSmall.png

Some pretty artwork

Expand the universe using the energy of Life! Go through the azoids belt and become a Star! All this in our game: "Scale of Life" 1.png 2.png

Done!

I'm finally done with my very first submission to Ludum Dare and very first game in general! I had a lot of fun doing this, and I am pretty sure I will be here again for Ludum Dare 40! This has been a blast, and even though exhausting, an amazing experience!

Making a racing game

Hello guys, after some hours, this is how it looks like the test track, now it's time to do the tracks for the game (and put some buildings instead of this walls). XD ld39_01.jpg

Scene 6 Complete

The 6th scene is now complete! In it you will have to decide whose plan to follow. That will significantly change the story from there on out!

Here's a small screenshot from the place melting down! How fun! Screenshot_168.png

Finished My Game

I finished my little game. It's the first time I participate and I'm very happy with the result. I think it could have been a bit complexer but I think I archieved a nice game.

Eyes to big for my stomach...

I love my concept, but I think I went a little too ham on the details, and now i'm pressed for time. It's hard to see myself finishing by the deadline, but I'll keep crunching, maybe I can pull this off.

Thanks!

A dark time

And.... submit! I am very happy how it turned out the game, as I said it is not amazing but it is my first jam so happy to have finished "something". There is a lot of room to improve, graphics and animations for example.

I hope some of you enjoy it... If you are going to try it, play it in full-screen (1920x1080) and headphones on! I tried hard to at least give some sort of a spooky ambience!

The joys of statistical anomalies

My games has power ups and their spawning is controlled by a random number generator (one separate one for each power up).

First time I run to ensure the newest power up I added worked properly, two power ups spawned the exact frame. Naturally I assumed it was a bug causing the two RNG's to create the same number.

I spent 20 minutes trying to figure out what was causing it.

Turns out it was just a statistical anomaly where both RNG's happened to generate the exact same number.

Spooked me for a bit.
