As the most people seem to use this topic for their post so do I.

It’s my first Ludum Dare, I cleared my schedule for the weekend (hopfefully enough of it) to take part. I hope I can come up with a fun game and hope I won’t fail to horribly (even tho I doubt to have success at all, as I have no Idea yet where to start :D)

Edit: As some people post it. Most likely using Unity and Photoshop. As I can’t model at all I hope I can think of a 2D Game or else I probably also use Blender. And for sound-effects I’ll use sfxr

Edit2: getting 6-7 hours sleep and join in 1 – 2 hours late for the fun. I am hyped

So.. It’s my first Ludum Dare and I realise now that I am a complete moron. I was totaly unprepared and besides having spent an hour working on a game conpect, then scratching everything and doing something else I realise that my knowledge in Unity is far less than I thought.

I need a creative break.. I have nearly nothing set up yet and while I need the break I rethink my strategy. All I have right now are placeholder Graphics and a room layout. As I am not happy at all about it I might go ahaed and redo everything again later or finish everything without propper graphics. So not happy at the moment about myself.

After my little outrage earlier, I came back and decided to do something small, less complex than I had in mind. At least I know now for next time

I realised that my knowledge of Unity / skills in creating Graphics are far less developed than I thought (Or I am just too critical about myself. :D) so I just decided to make a small one room survival shooter with a shop, upgrades and stuff.

Tomorrow I only need to implement the upgrade spawning / buying (not sure on it quite yet what I go for) and enemie spawning. Basic spawning implemented already however still need to implement a wave spawning system though and now that I think about it, a Win/Loss Scenario else it’s not fun I guess 😀

It probably would have been smarter for me, to just go to bed early and then wake up at 6 am (3 hours after LD started) and head into the game fully awake. However can't sleep right now (probably slept too long this morning) and now eagerly waiting to see what the Theme will be. I have to say that for most of the themes I still have no Idea what I could come up with for it, however as this is my second LD I hope I can come up with an Idea quite fast to participate propperly.

I will be using

Unity3D Blender/Gimp/MagicaVoxel (matters on what game I'll do)

For the soundeffects I will use Bfxr

For Music in the Background... I will have to see if I find something usefull to use in that time has forgotten what he used last ld for the music

Have fun everyone
