Ludum Dare 46

Irving Forrest Needs Your Help

He is making some terrible decisions today. Only if you help him keep himself and his company alive (and drop a rating and a comment) may his creator be able to stop shamelessly posting self-promoting ads. https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/46/irving-forrest-technologies-and-redacted

A Game I Enjoyed

One Day More!

Only one day left! I have had so much fun participating in my first Ludum Dare and I will definitely be participating in future jams as well! Additionally, some shameless self-plugging: If you would play and rate my game, it would be much appreciated! My goal is to get above 100 in the "humor" category! So thanks! https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/46/irving-forrest-technologies-and-redacted

IT'S THE FINAL COUNTDOWN

I would love some last minute feedback on my game! If we can get to 40 ratings that would be SUPER appreciated! Thank you so much in advance! https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/46/irving-forrest-technologies-and-redacted

Playing + Rating is Done!

As of this writing, it has been a few seconds since playing + rating was shut down. I must say, it has been great participating in this wonderful game jam and community and getting 39.99999 ratings on my first Ludum Dare game! Here's to great future jams!

Goal Reached!

If you've been reading my recent blog posts, you know that my goal was to end up with a score above 100th in the humor category. Well, I achieved this, and I couldn't be happier!

Would You Like To See My Game Get a Post-Jam Version?

Now that the Jam is finished, I've been thinking about the future of my game. I personally think that the game is very good, and it has me wondering, would people like to play an expanded version with more content/endings, achievements, and a cleaner interface made in a proper engine?

If you haven't played my game, you can play it online here: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/46/irving-forrest-technologies-and-redacted

Please leave your answers in the comments. I'd love to hear from you!

Short Sequel to My Jam Game Coming Soon

I had a ton of fun making my game Irving Forrest Technologies and [REDACTED] (https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/46/irving-forrest-technologies-and-redacted) for LD46, so I decided to make a short sequel to it that will be showing up on my website (ludumdaremuseum.weebly.com) at some point in the very near future. So stay tuned!

Thanks to everyone who played my game! You won't be disappointed by the sequel!

Typical "I'm In" Post

Breathe in, breathe out, and prepare to overwhelm your favorite food delivery service

Alright! I'm in! Third game jam, but second Ludum Dare! Last LD, I made a comedy twine game called Irving Forrest Technologies and REDACTED. It was a super fun experience, and I'm looking forward to having another crack at it!

My Tools

  • Twine or Adventuron depending on what I'm making
  • Piskel for any art
  • BeepBox for any music

The Plan

I don't have as much free time this time around, so here's the plan.

  • Don't sleep. Put Q-Tps between eyelids to ensure that this works.
  • Work on stuff that needs to be done for an hour, then throw together some crap code for ten minutes. Rinse repeat.
  • Use every scrap of free time throwing together the aforementioned crap code

I'm really excited to see what all of you make! Cheers, fellow developers!

Starting my Game!

Alright, time to get to work! Here's the plan: - I have no time. Just make another Twine game. - This Twine game is about an elementary school student reliving the most embarrassing five minutes of their life... - So yeah. That's the plan. Good luck, fellow devs!

Details on My Game

It's another comedic Twine game. It's about a dramatic elementary school student participating in the school play and being stuck in a loop. In other words, he's forced to relive what could either be his proudest or most embarrassing moment in his life. I want to make something that reminds people of my previous game, Irving Forrest Technologies and REDACTED, but that makes several improvements to the formula and humor. So that's the game! Good luck to all of my fellow devs! :slight_smile:

Didn't Finish My Game. Oh well

Life got in the way. I wish I could've finished, but I didn't. I hope to participate next time!
