Alright, I'm curious what the theme is gonna be! This is my first LD game jam, but my 3th in total, and I also have 10 years of professional experience (and a lot more unprofessional experience, haha)

I had already decided I wanted to make a mini pokemon-like game, so it depended on the theme if I could do that. I think I can make this work, I've got an idea. :D

here's a Trainer with his yellow creature. My plan is to do coding today, and art tomorrow. :sweat_smile:

Is there a way to post a video here?

Its a pokemon-like game where you have to throw food at your creatures to keep them alive. Or you can throw it at wild creatures to tame them. It's actually kinda fun! (albeit clunky) watch it here: https://youtu.be/RjGRbTiLDSw

I've published a version of my LD46 entry on itch.io: https://gamingstef.itch.io/blockemon

please play it and let me know what you think!

It isn't the final version, as I still have some time to work on it, but it is fully functional! Go play!

I'm new to ludum dare, and I dunno what's best, should I submit my entry now (which works, but I still have some time to improve some things), and update it later (still before the deadline. Or should I just wait until I want to submit the final version?

this is the game by the way: https://gamingstef.itch.io/blockemon

Haha, I'm not trying to brag, I just think I made a rather big game for a jam. :smile:

As a side effect, the graphics and polish aren't top notch. :sweat_smile:

But I think I made a rather original and fun game, and I am proud of it.

And seriously, if you encounter any game in this jam that's bigger than mine, do let me know, I'm curious. :smile: (I mean big as in game-duration/complexity)

I'll play anyone's game as long as I can play it in my browser. :smile:

( sorry for the other games, it's just easier for me. rather unfair of me though as my game is a windows only download game :sweat_smile: )

And if you could then play my game in return, I would be very gratefull :smile: https://gamingstef.itch.io/blockemon

I added a webbuild for my game: Blockemon https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/46/blockemon

Which I should've done immediately, but I assumed it would be a hassle (but it wasn't, it was super easy :sweat_smile: )

I really appreciate everyone who plays it and rates it. (so please do! :smile: )

Let me know if you have any problems with the web version, the windows download version plays super smooth on any (windows) computer (as far as I am aware), hopefully the web version is just as good. :smile:

Last day, I really appreciate anyone playing my game. :smile:

I'm really happy with the game I made, and honestly, I want to make a full game of it.

It's a real-time pokemon-like game! There are many different creatures to battle and catch! (But you can only have 3 at max) And a gym to beat at the end! Can you do it?

There's a web version and a windows-download version.

What are you waiting for? Go play it now! (in your browser) https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/46/blockemon (and rate it please)

Ok, I suppose you can also play it after the deadline, but I want as much ratings as possible. :sweat_smile:

I'm looking forward to it! Last year I did my first ludum dare, made a pokemon-like game and I loved making it! I hope I can make a pokemon like game again this year! :D Will depend on the theme (fingers crossed)

A golf game where you go and explore the deep cave below the hole! It took some time before I decided what I was going to make, but I like it so far, it's a bit silly, but I feel like it works. Only started a couple of hours ago, but it's already time to call it a day, as I'm going to bed. 😅

tell me what you think, and how many strikes it took to reach the end! :smile:

I'm looking for browser games to play (just cause it's a lot easier :sweat_smile: ) but it's hard to find them, so feel free to post your browser game here and I'll play it!

Had fun every time I joined, so if I like the theme I'm gonna join again! I won't have much time, but I didn't have the other times either so should be fine! :smile:

Though I'm not loving any of the possible ones atm. :s

That's not exactly the most exciting theme. I'm thinking about just ditching the theme and just making what I want :thinking:

just published my game!

But man, is the embedded option just bad or is it me? I think I'm gonna upload it on itch, cause it's difficult to play the way it's embedded here. (the game is bigger than the rectangle it gets on screen, and it acts weird with fps-controls)
