My first Ludum Dare!

My first Ludum Dare!

I’m a coder, so graphics will be a challenge, not to mention getting something actually finished by the deadline. Most of my projects are 20% complete, and a few are 80%… this one needs to go all the way, which is probably exactly what I need to learn here. Wish me luck!

Jams are great for learning how to scale down projects when needed and for finishing things on time. It also forces you to work on things you’re not so good at (I also more of a coder than an artist).

First day done

I wish I had some nice screenshots for you, but I’m a coder, and my graphics skills are lacking. Don’t worry, there’ll be something though. I’ve done quite a bit of coding, and started on game music composition as well. Sound effects are a bigger challenge. I need the sound of a dragon blasting fire, and I’m not sure how to do that, as a candle is my only source of fire around. My first LD, so bear with me. The amount of work to pull everything together is staggering. But I need a nap now… See you tomorrow!

How long do you think this sheep will survive the game?

Finished game

Well, it's far from a finished product, since I didn't have time to do sound, music and nice graphics. But it's at least playable, and I have to sleep. So please try it out at https://gateway.ipfs.io/ipfs/QmYPgDCQiH2Q4JJiF7QH5e9kCJhw2Uep53pvZ8GeHEB8Pw . I have a few ideas for various game modes and difficulties, we'll see if I can get to these in good time.
