ENTER THE DAMN THING, IT’S NOT ALL THAT HARD REALLY you just tend to cut out 99% of your game ideas once it hits crunch time

Mutation: Backstory

It is the year 2050. Mankind has finally achieved an elusive goal: interplanetary travel. Our hero was selected over thousands of similarly skilled volunteers for this one-way journey to Mars. After a year of spaceflight, he prepares to touch down on the alien planet, only to learn that a critical landing thuster has not survived the journey.

Our hero survives a crash landing on the Martian surface, but the ship doesn’t. The ship’s nuclear core is leaking onto the Martian soil, endangering Martians. The creatures who have been exposed to the spilling nuclear core are mutating! Mutated Martians are now becoming violent. Our hero must contain the spill to save himself, the mission, and Mars!

Calling it a Night

Well, with the patient support of my wife and kids, I gave it a go, but I’m not going to be able to finish for the compo. I may be able to finish in time for the jam.

I will leave you with this sprite:

That’s awesome bro. I hope you continue to work on it and maybe put it in the Jam. That’s awesome of your family to be patient. My gf has been very patient and supportive as well. Yay for our loved ones and yay for game dev!

I’m in.

I’m going to give this a go. It will be an opportunity to try out Phusion, but first I must sleep. :)
