LD 39 July 28–31, 2017

Well, it's almost the end.

As I'm writing this, we only have about 1 day and 23 hours left. Wow. This really did go by quickly, but, it is not over yet. If you want you can play me entry here: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/39/dodge-the-box And, if you want me to play yours, go ahead and send it over to me, Good luck all!

You Scratch My Back, I'll Scratch Yours!

As we near the conclusion to the rating portion of this great event, I want to provide (and ideally receive) as much feedback as possible. As I have seen many others do, I am inviting you to share your games with me in the comments of this post, and I will try to get to all of them. In return, I would greatly appreciate it if you could provide some feedback on my game, Mr. Plug, which can be played here:

Power Rhythm Post-Jam Edition

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7FpAieAwjMM

I made a rhythm game for this Ludum Dare. Here it is!

In this post-jam edition, songs can include held and slid notes. A new song has been added (featured in the above video!), plus a short, easy level to help familiarize the controls.

I'm still a bit short on ratings. If you check out my game and leave a comment, I'll check out yours!

Gem Diver - Post Jam version now available

That's right! A smattering of bugfixes and some improved features.

  • Fixed the moving obstacles freaking out when they intersect with a bubble
  • Adjusted hitboxes slightly to fix a few things that felt unfair
  • Improvements to Endless Mode generation. Still not perfect, but a lot better.
  • Adjusted camera position slightly upwards
  • Minor adjustment to the mode selection screen
  • Winning the game should now take you back to the mode selection screen after some time
  • Added A/S/D control support
  • Added Mouse control support. This means the game ought to be playable on mobile browsers than can run the game in the first place.

Time for the Timelapse of Shoulda, Coulda but Didn't

I finally got the timelapse of our livestream from making Shoulda, Coulda but Didn't completed and uploaded, and I'm happy to now share it with all of you.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JXxRiVqf8bo

The video covers our entire livestream - foibles and all - so you'll see us writing the dialog for the game's popular voice overs, our ongoing struggles with car control, me developing the volcano that is almost never visible, the arrival of the Franken-Pizza, our way-too-late bug testing, and the time that I forgot my screen was the one we were currently showing, so I started absentmindedly doodling random stuff while Will (@floata-1) told a very long and somewhat confusing story.

For everyone who has rated and commented on our game already, thank you! If you're still interested in trying it, we would really appreciate it and you can do so right here.

Exocharge Infinite Wrapup

We've received great comments and thank everyone who played Exocharge Infinite (https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/39/exocharge-infinite). We wish we had more time to play and rate other games but its tough using only cellphone internet (times are tough :P).

In summary we've learn't a lot from this Ludum and aim to take the game forward in development with the aim of a potential indie release sometime next year. Lookout for Karnage Studios ;).

Thanks again peeps <3

This what happens inside you brain while playing Colors | Download now!

scrnsht_09.jpg

Promoting my android game for the last day hehe :D

Description:

Colors is a fun, challenging, and exciting brain exercise game that will test how quickly and accurately you can use your knowledge about different colors. The mechanics of the game are very simple --as the colors switch, you need to identify if every color matches the word spelled out. It’s EASY, right? But is it?"

This game is a mind test, also known as the stroop effect, where in you gonna tell what is the color of the font of the text.
