Food War!

http://ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-32/?action=preview&uid=51393

This was our first experience in this type of competition(create a full game in a short time period), We’re Game Development students and we’re in the first period of it, that’s why all the experience was a bit tricky, but we managed to control the time of content creation and proper development. The teamwork was a really incredible and marvelous experience, we had luck to know exactly what we wanted to put in the game, and all the members did a really great job considering ours student’s capabilities.

In this game you control a Gourmet Chef called Monsieur Foodon Wellison, the objective is to defeat the Food-Trowing Ninjas before they steal your secret recipe, you do this by countering all their attacks, sending the food back to them.

FoodWar Developers: Djosef Wytemalhos (Game Design/Art Creator). Eric Dantas (Animation/ Audio).  Saulo Mendes (Programming).

History:               Monsieur Foodon Wellison is the main chef of the restaurant La Nourriture Délicieuse, the best of the entire world. His rival, Cuisinier Furieux, hired Food-Trowing Ninjas to steal the secret recipe of Foodon’s delicious recipes.

Now, Monsieur Foodon Wellison must face the Ninjas to restore the peace of his restaurant, although Monsieur Cuisinier Furieux won’t give up too easily.

Aesthetics:        The game’s art was made in Adobe Illustrator, the final results of the images are a bit comic. The Monsieur Foodon Wellison is inspired in Mario and Zeff, and the Cuisinier Furieux is inspired in The Ginosaji(aka The Horribly Slow Murderer with the Extremely Inefficient Weapon).

Mechanics:        This was the trickiest part of all the game’s development, because was in this moment that the bugs started to pop out of nowhere (animations that don’t play, enemies behaving strangely, etc.).              Food War! Is a game where the player only needs to walk up and down and counter the foods that are throw at him.

Food War! – Prototype

We learned a lot about game developing and improved the teamwork a lot too, we’re a lot happy with the results although we’ve been nervous during all the process. During the production of the game, one of our members that lives in a different city had problems with his internet and that delayed the work, but we still managed to finish all in time.

The good side:  We got a lot happy in developing this game, this was our first jam and surely we’ll improve ours skills and develop a lot more games, the game’s art got beautiful and the animations got fun.

The bad side:    Our lack in experience and the short time made it difficult to develop, but we achieved to overcome it to some extent, a lot of things is missing because of bugs, this game was to be much more rich in mechanics, different enemies and Power-Ups, we’ll work to achieve that in this same game in a near future.

Final Version!

sorry people, but I who will create the best game this time!  

Run Rainbow Run

This time we fixed it! This was the first jam in our game came out with everything we planned, when it was announced the theme, we were no good ideas, many ideas passed through our heads, but we did not just wanted a game that was according to the theme, we seek a game that was fun and that holds the player to spend a lot of time playing it, several ideas have been mentioned, but only decided the definitive idea 12 hours after the subject of the announcement.

After the issue of announcement, two hours after the prototype was ready and 20 hours later, the game was already “ready” to be posted on the Ludum Dare site, but we find it very boring, because the first version was only jump platform to platform and make points slowly for a long time, from then dedicated the rest Jam of time to add elements that would make the game fun, we were so decided that the score should increase rapidly, and had coins all the time on the screen , so that the player feel constantly rewarded, and scenery that changes the background prevents the player feel exhausted by doing the same thing all the time, because the visual effect of “shift” holds the player in our game, so Rainbow not only shape shift, as the background scenery changes depending on how long the player remains alive.

Soon we have a character according to the theme, as different than some people who have tested the game think the Rainbow (game character) changes when jumps form (he turns into a helicopter to try to go higher than he could without turn), then the game is within the theme! In addition to the very ground that the character steps, shape shift all the time.

Run Rainbow Run is a Tap game where the player only needs to survive rainbow bouncing rainbow with a Rainbow and collect coins to improve the score.

Run Rainbow Run was developed by Dat Op Games components:

Djosef Wytemalhos (Design, Programming)

Eric Dantas (Art, Animation)

Sabrina Lacerda (Art, Audio).

Aesthetics:

The art of the game was made in Adobe Photoshop, the appearance of the characters Rainbow are an exercise that Sabrina Lacerda for game development college, the character is inspired by the Kirby (Kirby games of series) and Poring (the Ragnarök Online) game. To attract people for our game, we decided to do it with many colors, as this helps the player to feel excited and happy.

Mechanics:

This was the most difficult part of deciding during the development of the game, because a lot of ideas came into our heads, but none was fun enough, it was then that we had the idea of ​​making a similar mechanic to the Google Chrome Dinosaur Game (game that appears when the internet is disconnected). The idea was brilliant because it was a simple mechanics, but that makes the player to hold the game without even realizing it.

The good side:

It was very pleasant and fun to this game, our team did a great job, and our first goal has been achieved, now comes the second goal (a positive assessment of the people who will vote).

The bad side:

We spent too much time planning how the game should be, hopefully next Jam have better ideas in less time.

We hope you have fun with our game!
