Hi, I will be participating in this mini ludum.

My tools: C2, TortoiseSVN, Photoshop

I will be designing a simple tbs game based on this round theme. And I will be participating as a lone ranger ;).

To all other guys, let’s all make the games that we enjoy yourself and have fun while doing it.

Peace.

My progress after 7 hours of programming.

UI done.

Dialog system done.

Characters designed.

First scene finished.

Will finished the battle part hopefully soon so I can tempt you guys to test it for me 😉

First Battlefield

Battle features at 50%

Wow, that’s the word I will use if anyone ask me to condense my experience during the last two days in a single word.

I learn quite a lot during this mini ludum, which incidentally is my first mini ludum dare attempt.

As a single developer working alone, I believe the lesson I mainly learn is trying to stop the feature train  and keep everything simple.

Also stop overestimating your own capability 😉

There are a lot more I wish I can do with my game since it have great potential however what I got is what I got

So, guys, please go over to the main mini ludum post and try out my game.

I hope you will enjoy playing it as I am when I am writing it down.

This is my first ludum dare so I am a bit excited.

I previously participated in two game jams so I have an understanding of what I am getting myself into.

I am joining as a team since while I want to make a quick game, I also want to take my time a bit and make sure the small game I will create will be actually fun.

Besides that, I will be handling both code and graphics while my teammate handle sound effects and music. By the sound of his soundcloud soundtracks, we probably be doing something quite retro.

I believe that I am quite adept in programming and code architecture while my art skill still require a lot of improvement before I can make use of any art style other than minimalism and pixel.

Hopefully, just as in previous game jams, I will learn to continue to improve my asset pipelines and code design.

What I will be using:

Engine

• Construct 2

Graphics

• Photoshop

Audio

• Audacity
• Whatever my musicbro is using.

Ask anything. I will try my best to answer.

A underground shoot them up featuring a dwarven hero fighting against an army of gremlins marching towards his town using a mechanical flyer that he invented.

Player controls are done and the UI are done.

Time to make some enemies 😀
