Well, you will be needing some influences.
Treble Clef is a platformer game that has some rhythm mechanics.
We enjoyed making it and we think it looks quite great :)
I hope you guys will like it, too. ENJOY!

We put a lot of effort to put all these cards in the game. @spacey providing the amazing art, me and @honest-dan tried to implement all the combinations between the cards.

Please give it a try! We need them feedbackses. :)
Yeah, so we needed a battle simulation system for our game.
We will have 6 different battle blocks for each team and any number of units inside the battle blocks.
In the first video, we only have CHARGE tactic implemented and all units are using swords.

Then, we got RETREAT,FAKE RETREAT, FLANK, HOLD POSITION working. And units can use maces, polearms and bows. Enjoy!

We stream the progress, come join us: Twitch
Sorry for the video quality. I got them highly compressed to be able to upload them on Discord
Now we have different formations like CRESCENT, INVERTED WEDGE, CONCENTRATED CENTER, OBLIQUE,...
The Commentator is in. It doesn't have too many lines yet but we'll get there.
Also all the unit names are "Joe" at the moment and we need your help getting more names in.
It's medieval times so we have a format like Name, Title. ex: Brainoid the Brave.
It'd be great if you can drop a few names using this form <3 : https://forms.gle/ieyVeTSHLkPXBtG89

Because I'm also one of the programmers of the team, I only had around 2 hours to get my hands on the music. I think it turned out okay. And now, I often play it on guitar :D Kinda liked the riffs I found.

Hello LDfam! I had fun playing and rating your games. I'm one of the programmers of Beardadette and The Eternal Hiccup and I only had around an hour during lunch to make music for our game. ( Yes, I made the music while eating :D).
After the jam, I had this feeling, I wanted to make more music. So, I picked a few games that have fairly short music and covered them. Enjoy!

It looks like we might do an unofficial Top15 results if we can't wake Mike up soon :D
As a group of friends who want to join Ludum Dare but don’t have much time individually, we decided to try a “Hot Potato Challenge.”
We’re splitting the development time between us and passing the project along without any communication. No planning, no coordination. Just pure chaos!
It’s probably going to be messy… but definitely fun :D Wish us luck!
If things go well (no promises), we might even share a timelapse afterwards 👀
Here's our lineup:

Hey jammers!
For LD59 our team tried something a bit chaotic and wanted to share the result. Instead of working together normally, we did a no communication, pass‑the‑game challenge with 5 devs over the 72 hours. Each person got a small time slot, worked alone, and then passed the project to the next dev without any communication.
We recorded the whole process and turned it into a video:

If you’re curious about:
the video walks through each day and each person’s shift.
We decided to call it the Hot Potato Challenge!

Thanks for checking it out, and good luck with your own LD59 entries!
Congrats everyone on finishing Ludum Dare 59 and thanks to everyone who played, rated and commented on entries!
As some of you know, our team tried a little experiment this time: we did a “pass the game, no‑communication” challenge. Five devs, 72 hours, one project, and we weren’t allowed to talk about the game while the jam was running. Each person got a small time slot to work alone, then passed the project to the next dev, who could tweak, improve, or completely sabotage whatever was there.
We put together a video showing the whole process. What each dev did during their shift, how the game kept changing, and how we tried to glue everything back together at the end:
You can watch the video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MPMFWFSvN9E
Considering how messy the challenge was, we’re really happy with how Router Wilds did in the results:
We expected to lean more into theme/innovation, so seeing “Overall” and “Fun” also land in the top 150 was a really nice surprise. Huge thanks again to everyone who played, left feedback, or streamed the game. It helped a lot and made the challenge feel worth it.
If you’re curious about trying a similar “hot potato” format with your own team, or just want to see how chaotic a no‑comms jam run can get, we’d really appreciate you checking out the video and letting us know what you think.
Good job on LD59, and see you next jam!
