Ludum Dare 49

First Ludum Dare!

Hello everyone! This will be our first ever Ludum Dare jam!

I'm joining with my team from Australia - Dream Team (you can see our other jam games here https://dreamteamaus.itch.io/) We first got together at a smaller game jam and we just kept going, although we've still never met in person!

We're hoping to make a narrative-heavy visual novel type game this time and I'll be using Reaper to make sound effects and music

Can't wait to find out what the final theme is, and very excited to be a part of this great big community!

Good luck all!!

Seeing some AWESOME entries - congrats everyone! Check out our game if you like mystery, intrigue and a splash of the supernatural. Rate and comment on our game and we'll do the same :)

Coded this using the Ren'Py engine - my first time being the programmer on the team (normally just do audio) Really proud of what the artists on my team did!

Need original music for your post-jam game?

First of all, let me just say that this is my first ludum dare and I'm blown away by the sheer volume of polished, fun to play and good-looking games I'm seeing (and of course what I've seen is just the tip of the iceberg)

Thought I'd shout into the void to see if anyone would be looking for some original background music for their post-jam games. I need to expand my portfolio and I thought, what better way than to help out on someone's project at the same time?

Here's what I did for my team's game 'The Swirl'

I use Reaper with a combination of MIDI instruments and live recorded instruments. I usually start with a piano sketch, then expand on it with other instruments. Sometimes I'll start with a drumbeat or groove, then add bassline and the rest.

I can do jazz, epic orchestral music, ambient, lo-fi, chiptune etc
