No game engine. Just HTML5 canvas and some libraries like matrix-2d.
Top-down shooter, with stuff collection, and mob possession.
Old body must be sacrificed to walk next.
Hello! My second LD, last has been defeated by weekend work.
Your life your weapon! Your life your shield! Your life your currency! You leech swarm! Eat to grow and grow to eat!
Native canvas without engine and assets.
Too many wishes and internal engineering for 1.5 day compo w/o engine.
May be next time.
COMPO (because, i can't continue at working monday) HTML5 + webGL, no engine, just libs. (reGL, Vue, gl-matrix)
My last try failed because, i wanted too much features. I did waste most of time onto base engine for further features... And make nothing playable at finish.
Now i want finish something, even with green-on-black-lines graphics, even with Vue interface. (If theme match some my ideas)
After half of day, i did make something. (webGL, test mask of light simulation with framebuffer, realtime level modification)
Remainings only: * actors * entities * pathfinding * ai * weapon * inventory * interface
May be native JS w/o engine not best idea for compo. Or too many features. Again...
I want to create something like 2d horror with shadow crawlers on spaceship. (cellular level design and destructible walls)
I try many light modes, and think so walls with only back-edges obstacle lights see better than partially transparent walls.
What you can say about this?
Sadly, i think, i can't finish it this time.
My new try to do something to end.
COMPO just only COMPO My toolset:Last two days i write simple custom top-down engine to play with my wife. May be today/tomorrow i implement 3d(wolf3d like) instead of top-down.
May be it's fit to theme and i implement some things to make it real game or i make something simple text based.
Don't do ideal HL3 MMO with strong AI, just do something finished and playable - i say to my self every jam...
