my procrastinated post mortem

So, this is my post mortem.

It was my second ludum dare (the first alone) and some things went better and others not so much.
Let’s see:

Went right:

  • Better practice on pixel art (not good yet)
  • Learned that it’s better to have a color palette (I have used this site -> https://coolors.co/).
  • Improved mood (this is something I really appreciate while judging other games)
  • Learned something about Construct2 path finding behaviour (despite the fact that in the end I didn’t use it)
  • Streaming. This time I had streaming in real time. So if you want to see how I developed this game you can see in last videos at http://twitch.tv/martim00. You can also follow me if you want! =) I am developing an adventure game engine based on phaser.js!

Went wrong:

  • time (when you work in a group you can focus on details that make difference, especially sound, music and animation. Those things were left to last hours, this time)
  • jogability and usability (I think those could be improved, like some commenters have pointed. Notably the player deacelleration and procrastinator time alert)

I'm probably in

I'm probably in for the jam.

This time I want to make a photography-based adventure game (hopefully the theme will fit).

Tools: - my adventure engine (based on phaser3 and heavily inspired by AGS) - https://github.com/martim00/aventura - probably some of my beats for the background music - Aseprite

I'll be streaming at http://twitch.com/martim00
