Hi!

This is my third Ludum Dare and the first “good” game that I make in this competition.
The game is “Colourless” and it’s about survival as long as you can. You can do it absorbing or avoiding the rest of the circles.

The game had a lot of positive feedback lamentably. Why lamentably? Because they didn’t tell me what I was wrong to make it better. But I can collect information from many friends and some comentarys in my entry.
This is the conclusion:

Right:

•  I can make the game be very minimalist in graphics, rules and inputs.
•  The game is composed for only 4 rules , they are very easy to learn and I could teach without tutorials. Also the rules can be “exploted” in diferents ways , sometimes your decisions that killed you, can keep you alive.
•  The art is very good for a programmer. I based de pallete of colours in the “Thomas was alone”
•  The only GUI I have is the clock and it’s in the background to don’t disturb the player but it’s important to see.

Wrong:

•  MUSIC!!! I don’t know how to make music and I’m not good with rhythms so I decide not to do to not ruin the game.
•  Colorblind.  The colorblind people can’t play this game =/ They don’t see very good the circles.
•  The sessions of the game don’t last long. They don’t last more than 5 or 7 minutes.
•   The name 😛 It’s very bad but it’s the only who liked a bit.

To do:

•   HighScore Table.
•   Adapt for mobile.
•   Add music and sounds!
•   Add new simple features for extends the time sessions.
•   Change the area of play to a circular form.

 
Well, Thank to all who read this, play the game and talk with me in the IRC. Write a coment if you have a critic or a suggestions!
By!
PS: It was my April’s game for #1GAM 😉

Put all the game in a folder called “One Screen” and literally the entire game will be on one screen
