For the first time ever my LD has gone extremely well – I have a few hours of leisurely polishing before the end and I plan to make them count 😉

Probably the reason things went so well is that there are literally no sprites in the game, so that chunk of time could be used for music and programming instead.

Despite the lack of graphics assets I think the game looks pretty nifty though!

Another GIF after the “more” 😉

I mentioned before my spending a lot of time getting the lighting and day-night cycle working. Here’s what it looked like about half-way through the jam:

Initial working day-night cycle :)

I’ve linked from the game page to itch.io as I know thing will start getting crazy soon.

Looking forward to seeing your games!

Hi there ladies and gentlemen

Probably a bit of a no-brainer but yeah – I’m doing a game about weapons that are not allowed by the Geneva Convention, specifically chemical weapons, specifically Chlorine Gas.

Why so serious?

Guess I’m just trying to be clear with the theme 😉 Also I saw this recently – it’s a video (in French) about Fritz Haber: the guy behind most of the chemical weapons used in the last century.

I’m with the lovely Motion Twin guys again – this might become a tradition if they’ll keep having le: it’s a nice calm working environment (read: not Paris 😛 )

I decided that when in Bordeaux you have to use Haxe, so I’ve been struggling with OpenFL. I’ve not got much to show for it so far :'(

I may or may not manage to do something, but I’ll have levelled-up my Haxe-hacking skills in any case 😉

It’s not over till it’s over though: with any luck I’ll have something workable I can show on my tablet at A MAZE!

See you on the other side!

W.

I’d have moved much faster with Love 2D as I normally do, but variety is the spice of life.

It’s starting to look like a game
