LD 43

Why ?

bucket.jpg

Hi! I've been wondering a lot about LD, jams, and game dev in general. And I wonder why YOU participate in LD, what is the main reason?

  • Is it just for fun?
  • Do you need that time to escape your daily routine?
  • Maybe you just want to push yourself and learn?
  • Do you have bigger hopes in mind?
  • Or maybe you want to promote your work?

I'd love to know!

Gold Diggers

Are you willing to sacrifice the well being your workers to get gold, or the opposite?

That shading was tougher than expected ^^'

Gold Digger got his WebGL Build

A management/strategy game with a lot of replayability if you really try to maximize your score !

Instructions are on the game's page :

WHY?

Gold Digger is on the first page for top html5 games on itch.io!

Not sure how it happened though... If anybody knows how the algorithm works, I'd be glad to know more.

Also, you might want to try it, it's fun! ;-)

Mouseketeer is out!

Procedural platformer/roguelite with narrative elements

This project is probably my largest jam project! It's also way overscoped so it's a bit rough around the edges ;-)

Thank you so much to the whole team for this wonderful experience :heart: Everybody gave his best to finish the game. Special mention for Drenock and Julien Noël for their first game jam ever.

Some people are crazy enough to make a VR game for LD! We were stupid enough to make a game for Oculus Quest, which means only few people will be able to play/rate. If you are one of them, please consider playing/rating : https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/45/helldefender

We will try your game in return. We are especially interested if you made a VR game as well.

Have fun!

We're in!

And for the 7th time in a row. I'm still unsure what we'll do, how many we'll be, and how we'll organize our work. But we're in :) I suppose this time I want to try something new, something different? But that's very vague still.

In the meantime, I'm practicing my art skills with my 3yo son.

Who needs a codebase when you have homemade pizza

And here it is. The pizza monster of dawn. I shall feast on it for some time, and then replace it with one of its sisters.

I'm all set now, you can't hurt me anymore you filthy theme!

Sigmoids and market simulations

This is what the whiteboards look like when you put two math heads together for a jam.

More information on the project around midnight I think!

Pitch & some visuals

You are a bar owner, and the world is in lockdown. How will you keep your bar alive, with no employees and no clients? Well, you have a stock of alcohol, some cocktail blenders you could repurpose, and the demand for hand sanitizer is exploding. Time to make the best of a bad situation! Transform your bar in a hand sanitizer factory and save it from bankruptcy.

Second batch!

krita_bZGIE3SSea.png I'm done with alcohol. Now soft drinks.
