My First Ludum Dare Jam and What I think of it

This will be my firat time participating in this Game jam, I can't wait (can't say I like this theme tho, but it's an interesting one). I made a Youtube video saying what I think about it n stuff here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=whUF0GP7VJo

My Draft Idea based on the Theme|| Lets Hope I don't change!

Here's some Jamshot's that I took of my screen to show the development of my project and my plan going forward. It's always good to have a plan going into the development process, it gives you a sense of time and it's a way to keep you grounded and actually carrying out the task before a deadline you create(abide by the deadline [DESCIPLINE])

My Plan: DAY1

*~~Create the environment that the player will operate __(NPC's and Story Arc revolves around the environment since it's going to be a NavMesh System I'm trying out)

*~~Create the Player Controller __(I will be better able to explore the world I create n push myself to take it more seriously plus I can only test the Enemy out once Player is made)

*~~Create Enemy NPC __(Now this is where the fun starts! I Get to tweak the values of the Enemies characters and add or remove features IF I actually get it to work before day one ends)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~MAKE A DAILY MILESTONE AND SHARE, IT HELPS~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Jam Shot 001.png! This is the Start of the environment design Jam Shot 002.pngJam Shot 003.png Aiming to make it a night scene kinna setting

I reaaaaallllly hope I don't switch or bail on this Idea 6 hours from now when I wake up back, that would be havoc! :smile:

I Actually Stuck it Out! || Cerebra Coretex - Your Life is Currency

I actually stuck with the development project that I came up with, and now that the first day is over, it's time to check off what I've actually done for # Day1:

*~~~Created a basic Environment(Did a lil light tweak too) Jam Shot 002.png

Here I added some trees and a lil FOG to add to the atmosphere of the environment

*~~~Created a camera Controller Script that is the bomb if I do say so myself :smirk: CLICK THIS to see what It looks like in Action!

And since I didn't get to complete my character controller and Finish my enemy AI script as yet, that's what I'm going to be tackled next

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Day 2 MILESTONES~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~~Create Enemy AI script * *~~~Create Character Controller Script ~~~Add sound to steps ~~~Create Main Menu ~~~Add Background Music & Fader

Proud & Accomplished! Yet Incomplete || Cerebra Coretex - Your Life is Currency

I feel so accomplished!! This is legit the biggest game I've yet to produce using Unity, (will also be my first original game idea)

You escape with your life only to return there to save it!

So I've got my Character Controller to work! It's clunky out of this world! But it works for the most part,

I've also got my Enemy to PATROL! :smiley:

Last Day N' Alotta Struggles! || Cerebra Coretex - Your Life is Currency

I Spent 6Hours Trying to fix Things :control_knobs:

Everything that could get wrong got wrong, The AI system I had originally developed, I couldn't get him to attack or even recognize the Player!

And I'm REALLY not that good with doing AI systems, so I spent 6hrs scrummaging through Unity Docs, trying and deleting scripts, typing outdated method and went the whole road of code :pensive:

But I've found A way to get it sorted, and I'm working on it now,

OBJECTIVES Remaining:

*~~~Add Footstep Sound *~~~Adding BG Music *~~~Create Main Menu *~~~Adding Objectives *~~~Implementing Death Function
