I have never participated in a game jam or Ludem Dare, so this is my first! Im super excited to get started! I will be streaming the game dev. at https://www.twitch.tv/pixels_everywhere

Excited to forcefully mold the theme into a top down shooter! XD

rpg mixed with a falling miner / puzzle game. Lots more to add in the next 23 hours!

Not to ask a stupid question, but this is my first ludem dare, and im doing the compo. From what I understand, i have to play and grade 20 other games. Can I grade the ones that are up now or do I have to wait until the comp is over? I cant seem to figure out how to grad the ones that are up XD

Here's is my game https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/$81235

So what ratings are considered good and bad? Being this is my first time (i did the compo), I dont really have any frame of reference to base on.

What do you get when you cross rpg elements with arcade mining games? Well.... :) https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/dig-knight

Ive asked off of work to make room for this. I may or may not get to participate, because college is starting soon. Lets hope for the best!

Going lone wolf again! :3

Hack, Slash, and Toss mobs to avoid running out of space!!

Defeat monsters to stun them, and toss them over the bottom of the level to kill them! If you dont get rid of them, the will swarm you, take up movable space, and make it harder to survive.

How high of a score can you get?

Kill the dummy to start the game.

There are definitely some things I can do better next time. I fell that if I would hace budgeted my time better, I could have gotten a better result out of my game. I wanted to add a couple more monsters, and 2 more music tracks, but just didn't have time. Overall, I'm pleased with the result, but next time will definitely write a slightly stricter budget for my time.

Its easy to forget how exhausting the ludum dare is, lol. This time around, I made some pretty bad mistakes regarding game design and bugs. Next time around, Ill have to watch for that. Minor details that effect the game so drastically can be easy to miss tho.

Hoping for a good theme this time around. Asked off work for the entire weekend :D:D:D

very excited. Already got some ideas as to what I want to do

for the love of god, id like ANYTHING else
