This will be my first time. I will use Unity3D with Futile engine, maybe Box2Dx or Farseer for physics, C#, Zwoptex for texture atlases, maybe Photoshop for graphics and Logic for music and sound. I will definitely try to create something totally new, which may very likely end up being non playable 😉

I did it. The game is called Gene Game and is about combining nucleotides inside organism cell and creating DNA sequences.

The biggest problem was to create all game rules and be sure they will work when I implement them. 48 hours was not enough to check everything, but I was lucky and the game is playable. It’s also challenging and maybe funny (for insane genius minds).

I thought I won’t participate on this LD. I broke my arm last week, so I’m quite slow doing all the stuff with one hand. Anyway I decided to try it.
Started just hour ago and my idea is extremely minimalistic endless runner with one new neat feature.

I’m 90% done. Didn’t expect to finish the game so soon, just with one hand (another one broken) and using unity for the first time.
It’s completely minimalistic. Music and sound tomorrow.

I’m doing some kind of Portal like game where you can manipulate time. Unity is cool, but I’m learning a lot. Spent most of the time putting textures on those walls.

I chose not to use any GUI menu, and put all instructions in the game. If I manage to create 4 levels, here you will select them.

A little gameplay trailer for my entry.

Today I found out there is a game called Retro Sprint 2D on the App Store. I looked at it and realised it’s almost 1:1 copy of my Ludum Dare #26 game called Chameleon Run. I guess, the guy just took my source code, replaced the music and add menu there. Bad luck

Spent whole morning learning how to UVmap in blender. At least I know it now 😉

Still not very playable. A lot of work ahead.

This time I thought I won’t make it. Fortunately I was lucky and managed to finish on time.

You can play it here.

My current setup. Always ready!

I managed to fit in compo time, but was too tired to do anything right after. (LD ends here at 3 am). Now I checked all the links, embeded the game straight to LD page and fixed minor bugs. I’m ready to play all your games!

By the way here is my entry – BLINK GUN . Hope you will like it.

I love creating trailers for my Ludum Dare games, so here is one for the Blink Gun.

This will be my 8th Ludum Dare. Can’t wait to start working

Hi. Me and Lokiman are playing your games right now on Twitch. Feel free to join us and send us your game.

Hi. I’m playing Ludum Dare games right now on Twitch. Feel free to join and I will try to give you some feedback on your game.

Hi everybody!
Just wanted to share my recent achievement with you.

My game Chameleon Run which started as Ludum Dare #26 entry, won Apple Design Award 2016!

This is really awesome and I want to thank everyone from the LD community, it wouldn’t be possible without you.

Thanks!

This Ludum Dare was super difficult for me. I had an idea for a game which I knew I couldn’t finish on time, but I started creating the graphics anyway.

So on Sunday morning I had some assets ready and 0 lines of code. Then I took a shower and came up with completely new and much simpler idea. After few hours I realized, that it wasn’t as simple as I thought it is. Tons of small details needed to be fixed and tweaked. I managed to send the game to Compo, but I wasn’t very happy with the controls.

So on Monday I changed them, tweaked some effects a little bit and switched from Compo to Jam. And here is the final result. Hope you will enjoy it.
