Ludum Dare 37 – WIP

Doing Ludum Dare for the first time. I’m actually pretty comfortable with how far my game has gotten in the past 29 hours, so I was going to submit it just in case and hope I could re-submit if I changed it, but submissions appear to still be down (or I’m dumb and can’t figure out the new site). Oh well.

I have no art, but a blog post wouldn’t be complete without pictures, so here’s my “one room” as a teaser:

I really need to provide a tutorial and I’ll keep adding sound effects, but it’s pretty close. It’s a horde survival game where the main character can only place turrets and run around screaming. I’m enjoying it, though it could certainly look prettier. With any luck, I’ll finish up a few more things tonight, fuss with it tomorrow even though it isn’t necessary, and be done with it.

Good luck to everyone else!

Progress#2 – Placeholders

I had to go outside to break the ice and that took me over 2 hours. Since, time is running out, now I am gonna try to be more productive. The hardest part of my game has come, I have to create assets and replace these ugly placeholders.

Progress#2

“What have I done? A virtual pet simulator” finished

I aggressively control the scope of my LD entries, maybe too aggressively. The game is basically finished and ready to go after just over 24 hours with plenty of breaks and a good night’s sleep in the middle. I’m going to sleep on it one more time in case I come up with any final additions.

The premise: it’s a pet simulator a la Tamagotchi, takes place in one room, and may not end as you expect.

Currently there are three intermediate evolutions, each with a unique final form. I’ll think about adding more variations tomorrow!

A basic room template

I’m making a sort of ‘improve the room’ game, and I finally got the art done for the most basic room. Both closed boxes are tables and chairs, and the stove has a little bit of storage in it. Mostly for plates, cups, etc.Room Template

Can you see it?

almost all mechanics have been implemented. Just gotta build more levels.

Almost Done

Well, my game is pretty much done.
All the core mechanic, items, winning condition have been implemented.

It’s time to create main menu and polishing! 😀

Connection is lost… Making some survival game.

Your goal is to survive in your own room.

You have bed, toilet, refrigerator and TV. So, you need to watch movie to not to be sad, eat near refrigerator, go to toilet for some reason and sleep in bed.

But, all that stuff is super innovative and electronic. They work only when you have connection to Internet and have all new updates. And because of that you can’t use bed while it’s not up-to-date. Sometimes you need to reboot router to restore Internet. If you haven’t Internet, you can’t sleep, eat, update and other stuff.

So be careful. Try not to lose your connection.

Day 2 start!

I just woke up recently. Time to finish this!

Update #6 . One Room & 7 Days – Yet stuck on day one :S

I guess I have to add a UI now to let people interact with my game. Finish line is fast approaching. This is a jam game for me and I know I have a day more but tomorrow I will be in my day job and all of this will be a sweet fun times 😀

I start to juice it up. You should really hear the sound FX too. (Crappy zombie sound fx ftw!)

 

Programming Mostly Done!

Outside of programming in the Sound Effects, music and possible Art changes, all the programming for my game is basically done!! Just thought I’d share this but. Now on to the hard part…

Core Mechanics are mostly implemented

Its awesome except for the awkward controls – they discourage complex designs.

Loved the graph at the end – unexpected!
