Hi all!

This time I’m gonna make something for Ludum Dare, I never worked in anything like this before so I hope I can do it well!

I can’t wait! I’ll try to be in the top 100, maybe i’ll be last xD! Haha!

I’m gonna be using the following depending on the theme:

• Engine: I’ll be using Unity, i really love using it, maybe Multimedia Fusion 2 if I work with 2D.
• IDE: If using Unity i’ll be with Monodevelop, it seems fine for me 😛
• Graphics: Photoshop of course, maybe Paint Tool Sai too.
• Sound: Audacity and Bfxr, may not be the best but it sounds great for me :3
• Music: I’ll be using Abundant Music and GXSCC, maybe some reverb with audacity or something haha 😛
• Source Control: I think i’ll use Github, that’s a nice place for it.
• Distribution: Windows, and maybe Mac, Linux and Web before release.

Good luck to everyone!

Hi all! This time there are a lot of nice Warmup games so I made my own but i wasn’t motivated enough to make something better so I decided to challenge myself in the warmup and here it is!! My second attempt, but only a wip :P.

This time I want to make something better than what I usually do so I made a Roguelike dungeon generator, it remembers me to The Binding of Isaac’s dungeon pattern 😛

I show you guys this because I wanna give you some luck in this LD!

Guys, make the best games you could do and show all your potential! :3

Good Luck to everybody!

Here it is! The first screenshot.

Collisions, movement and basic Tiles!

Had lot of problems with animation and physics but now it’s working. Hope I can finish this :3

Time to add some enemys!

So finally half of the game is made, all basic mechanics (move, jump, shoot, physics, enemys, IA, death, effects, music..) and now its time to make the second part: The Gameplay!

So why not Take a look:

Amy’s Rescue, Your Spaceship blow up into pieces when you were going to land in The Earth and your girlfriend Amy and both fell in a different place. Amy fell in the entrance of some kind of secret laboratory beneath the surface. You need to kill the humans and rescue Amy in 6 minutes before they dissect her. In your hands a gun, because you are a cute alien :D!

My game is finally finished, the first day was like “Oh no… everything is turning really hard and bad… bugs, more bugs…” you all know what I’m talking about. But now! I turned the game in something I really love! It’s my first LD by the way but not my first game, and not the last!

Here it is!

Amy’s Rescue.

Your ship blow up and amy fell in the entrance of some kind of Underground Laboratory, what you need to do is rescue her from the evil humans! Kill Em’ All! Ah yes, but you have only 6 minutes, if not, they will dissect her!

Do you dare to try?

Hi, i’m satisfied with my game, Amy’s Rescue, but that was after a long way of 48 hours.

What went wrong:

-When I started making the animations they didn’t work at all, I looked for an answer to this and i figured out that it was a bug, a bug that makes the animations not switch at all, then I figured out a way to solve it, it worked, but a bit weird. Maybe I need to find a new way to solve that.

-The physics 2D where pretty hard to understand at the beggining, I thought i couldn’t make objects not collide between them but it wasn’t like that, another thing I found in the second day!

-When I was close to the last hour of submission, I finished the level, and the game started to lag really hard, it was horrible! But somehow I could make an antilag in less than that hour and submit it in the last minute <_<

-I couldn’t make all I wanted, physics, bugs, weird problems, like a fade not working without reason, and more things slowed the project, if you look in the source, you will see a saw and a crate that I couldn’t make at the end. :/

What went right:

-This is the first time I make art like that and it worked pretty well! I’m used to make games in a team cause I’m in a big project and my mates make the music and art for me, but this time i needed to do alone and everyone enjoyed it, was surprising!

-It’s the first time I make an IA like this and it was pretty fun to code, also the art, the feel of challenge felt pretty cool.

-Ludum Dare changed my way to think about my own games, I need to learn much more, and make better games. Thanks Ludum Dare! See you next time!

And you? What went wrong and right? How do you feel now? Share your thoughts!

Amy’s Rescue Entry

Hey all, this time i started with a big idea, I will try to finish it before the 48h if not, i’ll try to get it to the Jam.

This is what i have so far:

Some kind of God simulator where you need to conquer worlds using your resources

Right now all planets and resources are randomly generated but the system is not done.

If you ask for the genre it is strategy
