I’m in, and looking forward to the game jam this weekend.

I’m working with Love2D

I had wanted to make a game about using a hookshot and gun to gather a giant ball of rope and climb to the stars.

The hookshot is just a line, and the gun fires off projectiles as large as the player (that little blue circle)

So far I have this:

TODO:

• Collisions against enemies
• Camera of some sort.
• Also, some kind of art….

I’m in, though I may not have much time depending on getting end of year school projects done.

Last ludum dare I did the very silly Omega Llama and got my feet wet with sound design and basic music for the first time. I aim to raise the production values a little this time, even if only by having 4 bars of music instead of 2. (Though 8 would be nice)

My planned kit:

• Love2d, reusing any relevant code from last year
• Bosca Ceol, since it makes ok sounding chiptunes easy
• bfxr for sound effects
• Paint.NET for graphics

I may take some time to learn how to use a spritesheet editor.

Edit:

I wasn’t able to swing working in Ludum Dare with finishing my school projects.

I’m in.

I’ll be using much of the same kit as LD34 again:

• Love2d+Lua for engine/scripting/haxxy codez
• Various libraries from rxi to make things easier
• Bosca Ceol for 8-bit music
• Bfxr for crunchy sound effects
• Paint.net for leet sprites
• Staying up too late due to time crunching
• Epic Inspirational Bots for ideas

I also wish PoV a good, restful break from running Ludum Dare.

(Any grandeur implied by my title is for humor purposes only)

I’m in for the Jam. I’m going to try doing this with a friend this time, goomplez on ldjam.com. We’re going to try using the Duality game engine and make… something. Looking forward to this weekend!
