Ludum Dare 58

Meet our team

Hi everyone! 👋 We’re a young indie team N_LAST diving into Ludum Dare for the first time. Our crew includes a programmer, two game designers, an artist, and a marketing specialist — small but mighty! 💪

We’ve created lots of mobile games, especially simulators and games for girls, detective adventures, and escape-room styled quests. 🎨🔍📱

Excited to join this amazing community, learn, and share our journey with you all. Looking forward to the jam! 🚀!!! photoem2025-10-03/em19-22-16.jpg

Brainstorming

Hey Ludum Dare! How's your work going? We've already picked a theme, developed a concept and started to make some sketches

Here we share a little piece of our brainstorm meeting! We had lots of ideas since we're a cool team:)

1st DAY CHECKPOINT

Hey everyone! How are y’all doing?

!The first day is finally over — it’s been tough, but productive!

We’d love you to take a look at our character designs. The game design is still in progress, and we’re feeling excited, inspired, and full of energy!

Take care of yourselves and enjoy the creative process as much as we do. And don’t forget to get some good sleep!

Wanna know why are we called N- LAST? Cuz we do everything n' last 5 minutes!

BUG IN OUR GAME

We’ve discovered a critical bug that lets you kite a monster indefinitely. We asked the programmer how it slipped through. The programmer replied:

“Yeah, I knew about it. I figured I’d leave it in as a joke. Sometimes bugs turn into features.”

How it was going

In development, we try to stick to the classic git flow. However, this is not something worth spending time on at a game jam. Therefore, all commits go to the Main branch. :)

Here, by the way, you can see an approximate schedule of work on the project. SAT: 10:37 - 00:32 SUN: 16:06 - 23:32 MON: 8:20-10:30 and 19:28 - 2:33

You can see that we had quite enough time to sleep, and working in Unity took about 30 hours out of 72 total time. :)

Thank you!

Hey there! It's Ellen here:) You guys rock! It's our first LD as a team, and we cannot believe, that we did it!

Things I Keep

Our first game jam as an independent development unit is about to come to an end. Here are our thoughts:

  1. We’re glad we decided to take part in this jam — it’s been an incredible experience, and we’ve learned so much!

  2. Are we planning to keep working on our demo? Absolutely! We have tons of ideas, and we can’t wait to start sharing them!

  3. “But you’re not even in the top-10 of the leaderboard!” We know! It was our very first jam, and we didn’t know much about how everything works. But now we have something far more valuable than just a leaderboard position — an idea, the passion to create, and an amazing team of talented people!
