LD34

We鈥檙e in!

It’s going to be my first Ludum Dare!

I will be joining this LD with a friend of mine. I’ll be doing the sounds/graphics, even though I’m a programmer myself (I use L枚ve2D), he’s better with gm than me with l枚ve and someone has to do the art stuff 馃槢

We’ll be using Game Maker Studio with exporters, sfxr, probably LMMS for music and aseprite for pixel art (or another program if we decide not to go with pixel art).

He said he won’t be joining so I’m alone in this now. I’ll be using L枚ve2D for engine, sfxr (or bfxr) and audacity for sound, FL Studio for music, aseprite or gimp聽for graphics. Since I’m a beginner, I don’t know if I can use any libraries or not, I’ll update here if I use libs. I’m aiming for a mostly story-based innovative game, not a generic one.

Good luck to everyone who’s going to participate! Keep the game dev. fire going!

Hey LDers!

Hopefully if nothing goes wrong, I’m in. For LD#34, things went very wrong and I wasn’t able to finish my game, mostly due to my inexperience with the “Jamming”.

Now, I’ll try to do my best and not come up with a complicated game that I can’t finish in time 馃槢
Tools:
L枚ve2D or Construct for framework.

Photoshop/Illustrator/aseprite for graphics.

FL Studio for music.

Audacity and bfxr for sounds.

I鈥檓 down this time

Unfortunately I’ll be on vacation this weekend, and will not be joining the fun. Hope you all have good fun and get a good game going guys.

Keep up the good spirit! :)

Post compo thoughts for LD37

I don’t feel like I am a good enough programmer. I mean I am at a point where I can pretty much make an algorithm for whatever I can think of. But when it comes to coding that, I can’t. this ludum dare was a good example of that. It taught me how inexperienced I am. In 48 hours, I was only able to get a room simulation running and that’s it. I procrastinated a lot. My idea was not that great and the execution of that idea was… Not enough to make a good game.

So overall, this could be the worst jam for me. But I have seen other games. You guys did an amazing job, like always. Being in here, jamming with you all gives me insight, inspiration… Everyone is really creative here. I mean I have seen so many good games that I couldn’t have think at all.

I would like to say thank you for being here in this jam all the way through. I love how everyone in this community is helpful to each other. It’s like we are improving together and hopefully we’ll do better each time.

Anyway, I’m getting ahead of myself. Hope you all had fun for the compo and congrats for finishing it in time :)

Also, my game is here, if anyone is interested to look at a teen simulator 馃槢
