This is my third Ludum Dare, and I’m going to make it the first where I actually finished my game. This LD starts few hours after my last exam, talk about good timing :). As usual, I will be using FlashDevelop + Flashpunk + stuffs from the tools page.
So… good luck to all other participants!
PS. I’m sad that we don’t have silly themes anymore
SO, I ran out of time so badly, and I can’t even call my final product a game, more like a technical prototype really. It’s filled with bugs, about one minute long to play, and had story and gameplay that made up in about five minutes. Oh wait… it didn’t even have any gameplay XD. Nonetheless, I’m happy that I have something to show, and hoping that I would do better in next LDs. This is certainly a fun experience

Well, at least I had a passable art (there’s a bug in the animation tho). There’s a lot of bad planning in my part. Despite having never done the genre before, I attempted to make a quite complex platformer. Finally got stuck in double jump and cloud platform, and the code turn into unmanageable mess. In the middle of the second day I decided to rewrite and redraw the game into something simpler, aka make a fresh new one. It’s a decision that I should have taken earlier. Unfortunately in the remaining time I can’t get very far, what with a lot of time wasted in playtesting and debugging (lot, lot of them).
See you all in another LD!
Let’s hope I actually made something half-decent this time!
Code : FlashDevelop + FlashPunk
Sound : Bfxr
Music : Hahahahaha
Graphics : GraphicsGale
Gotta keep it simple! That said, I literally haven’t been using FlashPunk for years. So I decided to do some warmup and preparation before. And the conclusion: DO IT EARLY! I took too long to refamiliarize and now I’m tired and need to sleep. Well, starting one or two hours late is fine I guess.
By the way you can access my entry’s github repo here: https://github.com/randomasta/ld28. Will try to keep it updated.
Good luck everbody, don’t forget to have fun!
This is one hour and a half late but… I’M IN!
Been meaning to finish my base code yesterday, but laziness got in the way 😛
So first thing I do today is finish it. Here you go : https://github.com/randomasta/Sanity. It’s my attempt at a component-based entity system. Probably a bad attempt.
Now I’m going to get myself a good breakfast, take a bath, and finally make the game for real. You can’t rush good things!
That’s all, good luck and have fun everyone! 😀
Or at least I hope so. Haha.
Now, everyone, GO!
Don’t worry GreaseMonkey, I do submit something (see my edited post)! No time for the jam unfortunately, had to do my christmas travel today 😛
