Second Time!
I’m in for the second time with the jam!
I will be using:
Language: Java
Graphics: Paint.NET, GIMP and Piskel
Music: FL studios or incompetech.com. Depends on how much time I have left. Maybe even Otomata or Abundant Music.
SFX: Might use SFXR if I have time.
I probably won’t be able to work on the last day but still want the relaxed rules!

What is the engine?
Progress…
Also, why isn’t this GIF working?
Finally!
My game is finally playable and (a little) fun!
You have to multitask and control pacman and the snake (the snake is the RGB thing). Now let’s get to menus and SFX!
Java Applets…
My Java applet is not working… I will post the html code incase my error is easy to figure out

I am in for my third time!!! It’s coming so fast!
I will be using almost the same stuff as last time:
Language: Java
Graphics: Paint.NET, Inkscape and Piskel
Music: FL studios, incompetech.com, or Abundant Music. Depends on how much time I have left
SFX: Might use SFXR if I have time.
A simple copy and paste will work.
Just a few changes.

Haha, so excited you couldn’t hold on to the shift key!
SO MANY BUGS…
I hate bugs that you fix but, after you fix them, you still do not know why it happened, you just know your fix worked…
Done for now…
I made most of the main logic for the game and designed it. I don’t have a picture because I haven’t made graphics yet. I just have squares with bad mouse handwriting saying “Player” and “Enemy”. Now I just need to expand my idea, make graphics and make music.
…
So… The solution is to delete the math calculations. The rotations work automatically…
Gifs
Anyone know how you screen record gifs free? Every program I’ve tried doesn’t work or is laggy.

Open broadcast software to record a video and then xmedia recode to convert it.

Thanks
Animations!
Now I have animations! This GIF is kind of laggy.
Eclipse Error…
Anybody know why my eclipse won’t run my game now? It’s doing the could not find/load main class error. I woke up this morning and it won’t run. I have tried doing project clean and restarting eclipse. I really don’t want to have to delete it and download it again. Thanks in advanced!
It’s ok now I got it working!

I’ve never used eclipse, but I always fix those mysterious errors by rebooting everything (your computer too). Then if that doesn’t work, a big cup of coffee usually helps to figure it out within half an hour.

Glad you figured it out!
LD32 POST MORTEM
My first post mortem! HERE IT GOES!
Good stuff:
- I finished my game!
- I made (a bit) better graphics
- I animated my graphics for the first time!
- I learned how to rotate BufferedImages
- I learned about different shape classes like polygons and stuff
- I made my own music for the first time!
- I used delta time for the first time
Bad stuff:
- Didn’t get to add all of the towers I wanted
- Eclipse was glitching on me…
- I had to remove a couple towers from the game because of bugs I could have fixed with time
- My game is glitchy!
- When you play and it lags and freezes, delta time kicks in and moves the enemies to the end and you lose without your d=towers being able to shoot
Check out my timelapse!
Delta time glitch!
I am using a modified version of the variable timestep from http://www.java-gaming.org/index.php?topic=24220.0
Whenever I move something (like an enemy), I multiply the speed by delta. The problem is if the game freezes, the enemies teleport off screen and you lose (speed * really high delta). The towers (my game is a tower defense) don’t get any time to fire at them. Is there any way to make it so that it won’t do that or next time should I use a fixed time step or something else entirely instead?
