Cannot wait for this weekend’s compo, This is my first time competing and I’m really excited, I will be using Eclipse to code Java, for graphics I will be using Paint.NET and for sounds I will be using bfxr but for now I await the start, see you all on the battlefield (:

Okay so last night I entered my game, Artificial Selection into the competition. I thought I’d just make a post with a little bit of information, The game is a top-down, RPG style game. You play through trying to build a boat by collecting materials from all over the map. As you play through the game it is pretty difficult as enemies are walking round in high numbers. However you can build armor and weapons to defend yourself with. However these weigh quite a lot, therefore you can build some bionic arms to help you out. The idea of this game was to steer clear of natural evolution and rather stay close to artificial evolution (you building upgrades for yourself and the boat evolving as you gather materials) I will be releasing a helpful website that will show all possible crafting information, but I have to find somewhere to upload it to. For now here’s the game : http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-24/?action=preview&uid=14482Artificial Selection

Havent joined in since LD24 but will be joining this time will be fun!

I’m going to be competing this time, and streaming it here and then going to be uploading it to my channel over at HoardFilms on Youtube, please come and join me at either of these and good luck to all (:

Starting at 11pm for me works so much better than 2am so if I'm going to join then this is it. Last one was back for 24 so I only missed 21...

Engine: Unity Graphics: Paint.Net

It's going to be 2D, and here's hoping for a good theme...

I'll stream the whole lot as well, as well as tweet my progress :D

So I stayed up until 01:30 am last night to start my game. The theme stumped me for a while but I think I have a good idea now. I have the basic mechanics (walking, jumping, dying, collecting) all now working (I think well). I'm going to start again soon but I've just got out of bed, so I might scowl through the competition first.

I'm quarantined so I guess I'm in. C# it is. Unity, Photoshop, Audacity.
