I am so happy with the feedback I have received! To the ones that have played to the end, you have a special place in my heart. <3
Congrats everybody on a successful Ludum Dare! Know that your feedback means so much to the developers! Now let's go play some games!
I really enjoyed creating all of these organic growing animations!
I'm really happy with how this transition turned out even though it's not perfect. It's actually the first thing I did for LD45 before I had a real idea for a project. Finishing this animation sparked so many ideas!
I had some trouble deciding on what color seeds should be (above) but ultimately I decided to go with something natural looking. (below)
Thank you to everyone that has played my LD45 submission!
But what if I don't know the answer!?!
Oh...
This jam was awesome! The number of systems I was able to cram into my game surprised myself. Don't worry, I wrote enough spaghetti for everyone to enjoy. Can't wait to try your games!
And if you want, you can play Tip of My Tongue in-browser!
Play Tip of My Tongue in-browser!
Congrats to everybody that finished their game! Can't wait to play them all!
Here are my results:
Based on feedback, I was hopeful that I would place within the top 10 of humor, and I am so happy to have placed 3rd! My first trophy! Thank you all so much.
I expected that my placement would show a bump in browser plays over the last couple days, and it did. What I didn't expect was that the day after the jam ended, 17 people downloaded the PC build of the game. That's more downloads than the entire rating period. Strange!
Congrats to everyone that finished a game this go-around! And thanks again for playing Tip of My Tongue!
See you next jam?
Debt, Depression, Disease, Distress, Decay
At least one is inevitable
How are you today? Are you feeling healthy? Are you a bit stressed? Are you financially stable?
Congrats everyone on another successful Ludum Dare! I hope you're proud of what you made!
Thanks to everyone who has played my game, Decay. I am absolutely loving the response it's getting from players. I'm so happy that I was able to provoke an emotional response with my game's presentation and gameplay. Thank you!
You are a rosehip on a journey to sow your seeds.
Equipped with a thorn, you must slash your way through a jagged world of your own creation.
Collect water droplets scattered across a desolate world so your seeds may one day sprout.
Though be wary, your thorn may be your end.

I usually participate in the Compo, and I aimed to do the same this Ludum Dare. But for the first time, I over-scoped my project! My game loop was unfinished after 48 hours, and I still don't have sound effects after 72! As it turns out, art is hard (who knew?) and animations take forever!
However, I am very happy with how Thornscatter turned out, and I'm happy to be participating in the Jam category for the first time because of it!
I hope your compo/jam went well, and I hope you're happy with your game!A little about my game:

Water Tower is a game where you play as a Water Tower Attendant. You deliver water to crops like any sane person would, by shooting them with a water-filled sniper rifle.
Help produce a field of fruit by completing daily watering tasks, and soon you'll have a field so full that you'll lose yourself in it!
Ready... Aim... WATER!

This was my first 3D jam game! I always defaulted to 2D games because I always assumed that I'd never have enough time to make something in 3D. I was pleasantly surprised by how smoothly development went. I actually spent less time on art than normal (pixel art animations take a long time to make!) As a result, I had a lot of extra time to work on the mechanics. I honestly had such a great time "finding the fun" in the mechanics, and I can't wait to make more 3D games going forward!

I hope everyone's jam went well, and I hope you're happy with your game! I finally have time to start playing games, and I can't wait to play a bunch of farming games, it's one of my favorite genres! Thanks to everyone that has played Water Tower so far, I'm already past the rating threshold! I feel bad for not playing many games yet, so it's time for me to get to rating! Happy gaming :)
