I’m In!!

I’m in!! This is my first ludum dare, EVER. I’m probably not going to finish my game, and its likely to be really buggy and it (may) blow up. I will be using,

Language: Java,

IDE: Eclipse,

Graphics: Paint.NET,

Audio: No idea

This is going to be interesting…..

How to submit???

LD29LD #29 26. Apr 2014 · 12:04 UTC · 36 hours after compo start by burny123 · 0

This may seem a stupid question, but how do I submit an entry? I’m no way near finished with my game but, I worried that when the deadline comes/I finish that I will not be able to submit. so do I need to host my own website? How do I make a download link, (“C: LD29 Untitled game.jar”). Sorry but this is my first ludum dare entry ever. Please help!!

You need to upload your game to a public site. Do you use Dropbox? Then you could put it in your public folder (or a subfolder of the public folder) and copy the link from it (right click on the file and “Copy public link” or something similar).

Depends on the type of game.

Another solution is github. You can store your code and host a web page too (using a branch named gh-pages).

You don’t have to host it yourself.

Thanks, I can now concentrate on actually making my game instead of worrying about submitting. I will probably upload it to drop box,as I don’t really now how to use git. Again thanks, you have saved me!!

Getting there….

I’ve almost got all the core mechanics done. Maybe I’ll finish, I’m thinking maybe a platformer and that you are trapped in a cave below the surface of the earth trying to escape.

I’ll try to be in…

I will try my best to find some time to enter but I am away for most of Saturday and Sunday. I hopefully will have evenings free, and maybe an hour or two in the morning on Sunday but I unsure at the moment. If I have anything then I can submit it Monday, but again I’m not sure I’ll have the time. If I do participate then I will use….

Language: Java,

IDE: Eclipse,

Libraries: None,

SFX: sfxr,

Music: Musescore, Audacity,

Art: Paint.Net

And I think that’s it, yay

A Progress thingy…

I have just got back in from visiting friends for the day…damn socialising. I have managed to fit in a bit of development in the mornings, but not much. Anyway here’s a screenshot..

Yeah maybe the rubbis…original art will change but hey, i dunno, but anyway forward!!

Can someone Test this??

Hey, after my last few..urmm..unsuccessful ludum dare’s using java i thought i would try to learn somthing new. So i tried to learn python and pygame. So today i made a quick game called catch the fruit – its pretty self explanatory. Can somone here please try the game to see if it has been packaged properly? I need this to work especially after my last humiliating ludum dare entry involving a resource error

It should look like this

thanks in advance

I think you forgot to package the assets with the game, also you should use relative paths when referencing files. This is what your log spits out when i try to run the game:

Traceback (most recent call last):

File “Game.py”, line 15, in

File “Game.py”, line 18, in Player

pygame.error: Couldn’t open C:/Users/Barney2000/PycharmProjects/Dodger/Player.png

Works neat! Funny graphics by the way.
