Hopefully anyway!

Taking a break from usual game creation activities and using this as an excuse to learn how to use Monkey! Although I’ll be doing that tonight before the compo so I have a vague idea of what I’m doing. So, here are my tools:

Code: Monkey (or Blitzmax if I get stuck)
Art: InkScape / Paint.net
Music: Renoise
Sound: BFXR

Additional Libs: Diddy for Monkey (seems like a necessity).

I won’t have full time available so I’ll have to choose a tiny project, but excited about having a go anyway!

Good luck everyone, see you on the other side for playing/voting either way!

Sadly I did not complete my game in time

I planned to do a game around the evolution of vacuum cleaners, from the early hoover with the paper bags, to the wonderfully characteristic Henry’s and finally to the bag-less Dysons of the world. It would have been magnificent!

Instead I ran out of time (silly real life!) but I was working up until the last couple of hours.

What I have done is playable here though (HTML5)

And here’s my timelapse (first time doing a timelapse!)

Congrats to everyone who finished their games, I shall definitely play as many as possible over the next week and vote/comment!

See you next time.

Hey everyone, Congrats on all the entries so far!

I managed to throw something together called Hopper!

It’s kind of endless-runnery but mostly it’s about jumping (which I keep spelling with a K in the middle for some reason) and avoiding spiky things in the air.

 I’m pleased with the simplicity of the idea of the game, pretty sure I’ve captured the general idea of being minimalistic. As I didn’t have much time to work on it the theme turned out to be a blessing in disguise!

I spent about 4/5 hours on Saturday morning, but then because of family stuff I didn’t get back to it until Sunday evening. It was a shame because there were a few additional things I would have liked to have got in there.

Generally speaking however I’m pretty proud of it, I hope you’ll all give it a go!

Good luck to everyone, see you in the voting phase!
