LD30

Latecomer!

Oki, this is mainly a gamble for me. It’s my first real LD compo, and I begun 18h in the first day.
Today have just begun for me, and a lot is still missing or buggy..
But yeah! This’ll be fun.
By lack of creativity, I’m making a 2D sidescrolling platformer, from scratch in Java.
I’m using GIMP for graphics, SunVox for music and sfxr for soundeffects. If I ever get to that part. c:
The game revolves around ..getting to the boss. However there are two connected worlds of existence. You can vaugly see your enemies in the real world, but you can’t defend yourself unless you enter their world, but that requires energy.
This is a screenshot of what i got so far. Didn’t manage the visual style I wanted, so I did something simpler..

Wish me luck!

Giving up :C

Thinking, I have a cold. That’s a nice excuse for spending the entire weekend infront of the computer. Seems to be a mistake. Brain gotta work too.
Late start and lot’s of other duties that took lots of time didn’t help either.
I should probably have chosen something quicker, like Unity, or atleast a premade framework like Phaser, but I just really wanna do a game in pure Java. Or another language, wtvr.
Anyways! Enough excuses, this is what I managed to do.
The code became worse and worse as I spiraled downwards, so don’t look at it if you don’t want nightmares.
