Rest now. Cleaning up entry and all that lot later.

Rik&Me made a game about finding a room. Which disappeared. And messed up various things because it has the ultimate power. Of science and stuff. Feel free to check it out!

on the brink of total collapse

LD37LD #37 12. Dec 2016 · 19:49 UTC · 3 days after compo start by mirta000 · 1

but doing bug testing right now and changing lots of small things, like colliders and damage dealt. Thankful for the input from our testers, a bit stressed due to much testing this late. The idea is to upload and submit in 2 hours, so that we have 4 hours to solve anything that can go wrong with that 😀
Oh, and this is our menu:

My first LD game is almost done, except for couple minor and at least one major thing! I can see the light at the end of the tunnel! :)

I might continue adding things after Ludum Dare. Maybe for a week or two.

That’s looks really cool! I love the clean, panel style mixed with the “lens-distortion”.

Thank you! :) sadly, I’ve run into some pretty big problems :( I have no idea if I’ll make it in time…

It was very interesting: to do this project in so little time. Thanks, Ludum Dare! You are awesome!

“Office Distractions” – an experiment with reduced interaction

LD37LD #37 12. Dec 2016 · 20:21 UTC · 3 days after compo start by Somnium · 0

My Compo-game, “Open-plan Office Distractions”, is about a team of developers, and the numerous distractions they face by working in a one room open-plan office.

Pre-project Boss-briefing

Pre-project Boss-briefing

In my original brainstorm, the game was supposed to be a management-game. You would actively control the workers, by assigning tasks, optimizing development processes, etc.

However, as I implemented the office, and the various “distractions”, I realized that I actually found it much more entertaining, to just watch the poor workers be hindered by the various distractions.

In the end, I therefore opted to remove most of the player interactions, leaving only the concept of spending “golden marks” (a reward triggered by finishing projects on time) on a few upgrades and on removing “failure”-marks (thereby prolonging the game/simulation).

I think this decision worked out rather well – in a way, I feel that the various mishaps which happens to the team during the projects are more entertaining, since you cannot prevent them directly.

I hope that you will try out my game, and leave a comment. Does the lack of “traditional” player interactions benefit my game?

Oh no, I have a deadline to reach, but the Boss just won't stop talking!

Boss, please let me get back to work!

 

You’re tearing me apart!

It happened!

Welp, I’ve successfully completed my 13th LD in a row, and my fourth year without missing a single one!

My first Ludum Dare was LD25 in December of 2012. I entered the compo, worked my butt off for 48 hours, and made a neat little 2D platformer. Since then I only did the compo a few times, as I really love working in teams. But, to celebrate 4 years, I decided to go back to my compo roots and see how far I’ve come. Turns out it’s a lot! I’ll be writing on this in more detail in my postmortem.

What’d I make?

The theme drove me to create a game inspired by Tommy Wiseau’s American classic film, The Room. In my game, You’re tearing me apart, play as Johnny during his last moments in the film.

Nice! Can you link to your view page so I can rate it in LD?

I only hate you for the beautiful background 😉 I discovered a neat trick, if you can land on top of one while holding both left and right, you can ride it to the top…but then there was nothing at the top :)

Awww!

I created a  simple 2D engine for this LD, but it took so long, that I don’t have time now for the game itself :/. I’ll give up this round in shame  😀

Good luck!
