Hello World!

I am the fellow who got around to it, so I guess I am the official blog-post writer.

I represent about 9 Georgia State University students who have just finished finals and are madly setting forth to commit the JAM.

Technology we are tentatively using:

Javascipt, WebGL, Madness

A part of Ludum Dare culture has been to update the community with your progress as you go. We have been rather busy, none of use know Javascript or webdev and we decided to make a HTML5 game from scratch.

Without further wordwrangling have a screenshot:

Nothal

We are at the stage of rapid improvements, so this is not really a good view of a final product, but it is proof one exits.

Nothal is hopefully going to be a game about you, the Ship AI, who has been recently burdened by the knowledge from you corporate sponsors that your crew is so unprofitable that it would be better to kill them and collect

You new job is to find ways to kill the crew without violating your core programming, and without arousing the suspicion of the crew all while preforming the mundane daily tasks required of you.

HERE have a tech demo.

This is the amazing theme music our sound artists (who will likely carry the project)

Finally, if you made it this far, leave your name (or a nice pseudonym) we will add it to our random name generator library!

This way there will be around a 1 in 1000 chance of you having to kill yourself in game!

Give us names!
