DarkEdge – First LD48!

LD19LD #19 - Discovery - 2010 17. Dec 2010 · 16:36 UTC · 16 hours after compo start by Marco Jonkers · 0

Hoping to learn a lot the next couple of days :)

Tools:

  • sfxr
  • Paint.net
  • Java (Applet)
  • … <probably forgetting something here>

I’ll use some base code as well – It’s not much, really. I wanted to make a Java game some time ago, but the framework was never finished. Some of it is derived from Notch’s previous LD entries, and some code is from the Sun tutorials.

Here is the framework

I don’t know what I’ll do in regards to music… I’ve never really made any music before, and I might use WolframTones (if that’s allowed), or leave music absent. Same goes for my timelapse. I’ve set up Chronolapse with webcam enabled, woo!

Good luck to you all! 😀

My Idea

Okay, so the theme is Discovery… After some thinking, I came with this idea.

It’s going to be a 2D detective game, like Where’s an Egg. It will involve questioning people, and “discovering” the location of a certain object. Don’t know what the object will be, yet.

Progress so far

Hmm, I’m not going as fast as I would like to go.

Oh, and the to-be-found object is going to be a hat (all these hat simulator games nowadays…)

LD22

DarkEdge is in!

Hey everyone :)

It’s that time again 😀 I’m listening to some smooth jazz at the moment… Anyway, I’m in for Ludum Dare 22. The tools I “might” be using are:

Eclipse, LWJGL, Slick2D, JBox2D, TileD, bfxr, Audacity (if the bfxr’s floating point wav’s are annoying me again) and Paint.NET. I might have forgetten something there.

I’ll be setting up Chronolapse again, and put a video on youtube afterwards.

 

Well, I’ll probably stay up until  2 AM local time to check the theme, and then go to sleep. Depends on how long my friend is planning to stay here tonight :p

I wish everyone the best of luck! Everyone can make games!

P.S. WE NEED DUTCH LUDUM DARE MEETUPS

LD25

Hey all!

LD25LD #25 13. Dec 2012 · 22:42 UTC · 1 hour before compo start by Marco Jonkers · 2

What’s up jammers?

Just a quick note to say that I’m in :) This will be my 4th time participating.

List of tools:

  • Eclipse (Java)
  • Notepad++
  • BFXR
  • Chronolapse (for timelapsing)
  • XSplit Broadcaster (for streaming)
  • Paint.net
  • PyxelEdit (just installed, seems like a nice program to have)
  • Audacity
  • GitHub for Windows (really neat!)
  • GIMP
  • Tiled

I’m making a small template to get sounds, images and input working before the jam starts. Code can be found here: https://github.com/darkedge/LudumDare25

Good luck to all of you! <3

Good luck! This is my first time participating. I tried earlier this year but failed miserably, but I’ll try harder this year. but what exactly is PyxelEdit and GitHub?
14. Dec 2012 · 05:45 UTC
PyxelEdit is some sort of pixel tile editor. GitHub allows me to use Git, a version control system, more easily. Find out more on Google :)

This is what my desktop looks like at the moment, no food or drinks yet 😉

This is what I’ve got so far. I’m making a game where you play as a vampire / goat bloodsucker (Chupacabra), and your goal is to eliminate all the vampire hunters that are after you.

I had some trouble setting my camera up correctly, but thankfully it’s fixed now. I’m going to take a little break now, and after that I’ll continue implementing features.
