At first i didn't know, what to do but now i came up with a very nice idea, i think :D So, what abut a visual novel-like strategygame? :D

My first idea was a mix of Jump'N'Run and Tetris, but i throwed my idea away and came up with Jump'N'Run and Turn-Based-Game. I mixed puzzels in there, since i wanted to make a game without fighting. I added fist simple puzzles, nothing to difficult, just some invisible platforms, mazes and buttons. The next thing to do for me is, to add another movement-mechanic besides the current ones.

Feel free to tell me about your thoughts about this one :D

My Ludum Dare stream was the longest and best stream, i ever had! Right now, there is nobody watching, but the highscore was 9, what is crazy for me, because i am a german streamer w/o a "real" community. https://www.twitch.tv/zelbstshoold

I have finished all my main game-mechanics right now :D Now, i am looking forward to add some hard puzzle-mechanics into the game. In my concept, you always can have one power-up, wich will switch during the game. I added a sprint-perk and the abilitie to fly over two rounds (roundbased Jump'N'Run).

Now, i will introduce a simple, but cool puzzle-mechanic with the help of this perks :D

Unity crashed and i haven't saved for about one hour :/ Oh and it turned out, that everything was just perfect, because i mainly scripted in that hour, so my progression where still mostly there. But i have to redo some leveldsigns i did and i might need longer for that, because i where very proud of them and i want them exactly like they where before the crash. Now, i have a [Ctrl+ S] macro on my mouse xD I hope, my mouse will survive :D

I worked on my game since more than 14 hours without a serious brake. I am mindfucked xD I am going to sleep now (I was planning to sleep 2 hours ago, but okay (OoO)/ ) Good night/morning/day/evening/whatever to everybody out there and happy jamming :D

My game will be aviable on itch in a few minutes :3

I, Dominik Mezler (also known as bluewingtitan) proudly present: The result of my first Ludum Dare, a mixture from Turn-Based and Jump'n'run: StrateJump! https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/stratejump

After the LD41 i will go outside now, taking the bus and getting to my school. I. Am. So. Tired... But anyway, had a great time developing my first Ludum Dare Game. Thank you all for keeping this Jam alive and so funny. Thank you for beeing such a great community! I never expirienced so much love and helpfulness in a community. I will definitely stay here <3

Feel free to test my first Ludum Dare game :D You don't even want you to rate it, i just want people to play it :D https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/stratejump Its a turn-based Jump'N'Run, but the concept is a little bit more out-of-the-box, i think :D

There are great game wich didn't even recived one or two ratings!!! Let's change that! Let's test some low-rated games and let's post lists with great games without the attention they deserve! AND: Let's play games in this lists! Let's stop with adversising for our games, let's start adversising for some great games of others!

i can't. Sadly. I competed in LD41 (and had a great time even though my own game wasn't that great - that's not what LD is about for me primarily), then missed the last two because of two birthdays. It seems like this will actually be the third one. I am crying right now :cry: At least i will keep an eye on all the other games and will at least try to start a project just for myself and itch :D
