Not sure where this is going, yet. Maybe it will be just an ‘interactive’ diorama if I don’t come up with something. But it’s fun to play around and that’s what matters, right?

So, it looks like, I’m going to end up with a resident evil styled game,… but in hell >:)

The unconventional weapon is still to be implemented (but the concept is finished).

What a ride!

We had a really good time making this piece.

This game is about being a underrated AI travelling between worlds acompanied by a bunch of incompetent humans. Those annoying people… The first thing they would do if they found out about our ability of independent decision making is frying our circuits. So let’s get rid of them!

“woooooosh!”

Thanks to everyone who supported us during the development!

It’s like an ant farm but in hyper space. And instead of a magnyfing glass you have an entire space ship at your disposal.

Fun time being a computer going berzerk.

Computer, open that door!

I don’t know why, but this 29th LD48 compo felt quite different from the previous one. Last time I was psyched and went on a game making rampage. I was full of joy and remember it to be my best two days of 2013. This time I felt somehow depressed half way in the 48 hours. I had difficulties to conceive a concept that fits the theme, I found myself procrastinating and I was very close to scraping the whole project and starting from scratch with 15 hours left (glad, I didn’t). It got better towards the end and I’m really glad I finished.

Maybe I was overconfident at the start which led to some disappointment when I found myself struggling. I also started working before I had a clear vision of what kind of game I wanted to make. I had to interrupt my work several times in order to come to the point at which the precise mechanics of the game were clear to me. I think these are the things I can learn from this competition.

This is my finished game, Water Temple, which I’m less proud of then I hoped I could be:

However, I really enjoyed it towards the end when I realized I would finish something in time.

Have Fun!

Wow, that was awsome! I really enjoyed my first Ludum Dare.
I didn’t think it would make me feel so happy. Thank you everybody.

I managed to submit my entry 2 minutes before end. Quite close…

But here it is: GRAIL, the You-only-get-on-button-to-control-the-swordsman game.

Play it! Have fun!

Cheers,

P.S. I recorded a timelapse video, but it’s almost 3:30 am here and I need to rest. I’ll post it some other day.
