Ludum Dare 47 October 2–5, 2020

Screenshot Week - post # 01

Hey everyone~ It's been a while~ Hope things run smoothly~ :blush:

In the last week of the voting phase we decided to share some details from the levels of our game, Led Astray

details house.jpg

The amazing background art was done by @nefeli who in such a little time managed to add enough elements to help the house feel.. 'alive' while revealing stuff about the main character's personality, lifestyle and interests.... :fallen_leaf:

details basement.jpg

Did I mention that this was @nefeli's and @jimrodvii's first game jam?? (aaand their first time working on game art!!)

So yeeeah, you did an amazing job, especially for first-timers muahaha! :stuckouttongueclosedeyes:

Thank you for carrying us on Led Astray~! :yellowheart: :purpleheart:

Escape from the time-disordered Android Industry

D31E6EE0-439D-4513-A68B-B91F0B5C8A04.gif A sleeping mechanical body has somehow been restored to power.

It left its repair bin, wandering aimlessly through the empty cloister with mostly damaged memory. Suddenly, the broadcast rang.

Help Creed find and repair her pairs through the reverse doors.

Each time entering the reverse door, whole time of the game may "reverse".

Three different endings, five progressive levels of difficulty, one gentle AI, everything is waiting for you to explore.

A better checkpoint system than my (yet unfinished) commercial game (what a shame xD ) Procedural Animations powered by PhysX Dismemberment System - shoot off enemy limbs - shoot their arms to disarm them (hehe), shoot their legs to make them slower 7 Rooms + 1 Bonus Room if you kept your Points with you If you don’t know what to do next, you can checkout the walkthrought.

The last 8! and Character Design Choices

As the time progresses we are missing 8 more votes for a total of 20 votes :D So if you want to help us out with some feedback check out epoch: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/47/epoch

When we were brainstorming we decided that the main character should be a mad scientist - like Doc Brown or Rick. 42021c33198c97167fe067c4e0d7f575.jpg ac5152b9f7f50781b2b01e35463fc4e6.jpg

We kept the character design within that style range and made everything much rounder and cuter. Epoch_03.PNG

Having references helped a lot with creating the character and the whole world around it. Time went by and we were thinking a little more about what this characters traits are. We wanted a character, that has achieved a bunch and is close to finishing his final sciency project. The character should act like he has seen it all (not surprised by the weirdest things) and finally wants some rest. We tried to get that attitude across by writing the voice over with that in mind. For example - we had a lot of fun fooling around with 'What would the character say' - the word AGAIN~ was a recuring theme and so we decided to highlight it by bringin it up every now and then.

In the end - we simply had a lot of fun creating the character for epoch and we would like to know what are your design choices for characters during a 48hrs. jam? Are there any or to many?

Cheers~

Very close

I think I'm about 2ish ratings away from having the 20 required to score. If you've got the time to play my game and rate it, it'd be greatly appreciated :)

The PICO-8 games of LD47

PICO-8 is a fantasy console for making, sharing and playing tiny games. We used PICO-8 for the first time this LD, and absolutely loved it - I wanted to share what awesome things you can make with it and hopefully have a few more PICO-8 games next time round!

I spent a couple of days playing all the PICO-8 games I could find that people have made for this Ludum Dare, and listed them here. Try some out and see what you think about PICO-8! If I've missed any (and I'm sure I have!) please let me know and I'll add them to the list :slight_smile:

All of these games are playable on the Web, as well as on mobile!
