My first Jam – “OH GOD, THEY’RE FREE!” (You are the monster)
Hi there, this is my first time participating and I’ve had a blast doing a game with Bob Morate, who’s done some more LD games in the past.
You can find the game here: http://ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-33/?action=preview&uid=35459
Basically it’s a 2 player (local co-op) arcade in which two mutants created by experiments have to escape from the lab killing soldiers to avoid being killed themselves in the process.
Although I managed to do level design and debugging, I spent most of the time doing the music, focusing in two instruments I don’t really know how to play properly (guitar and bass). I’m mostly a keyboardist, but wanted to step out of my comfort zone and composed everything in the guitar and bass, later adding keys to fill up the sound.
I’ll talk more about my successes and mistakes with this, as well as with all the other tasks Bob and I did, in a forthcoming post-mortem, but if you have any question fire away!
Can’t wait to participate again!
