As usual I hope the theme allows for simple but interesting mechanics on top of the conventional game design tropes. Think platformer football or melee shmup. All I know is that I want fast, gritty, deadly, and bloody gameplay. Whatever theme wins, I wish you all good luck and most of all, have fun. Except “Wait, are we the bad guys?”. Fuck that theme.
Tools: Game Maker Studio 1.x, Pro Motion NG, Famitracker, Brain 2.0
So, since the time is getting closer to running out I figured it might be time to clean and prepare my desk/battlestation for the upcoming compo.
Still a bit messy, but now I’m feeling much more prepared for what’s coming.
What’s your method of preparing? Meditation? Coffee? Or spontaneous bouts of cleaning, like me?
It seems to be a thing so I figured I’d show of where I’ll be spending all my time this weekend. The two monitors are attached to my Windows machine, and then I have my Mac setup for build testing later / Tweetdeck / etc. Can’t wait for the theme to be revealed in about an hour!
I got an idea. You are a professor/scientist/doctor who accidentally either shrunk or enlarged yourself, so the world is either tiny or looks tiny. It will be a platformer and I’ll probably make it so you die often as that seems popular. I’ll as previously declared be using löve and notepad++ on my crappy windows 7 laptop and I’ll be basing it on my löve platformer previous code. I have installed photoshop cs6 beta so I’ll probably use that too. I discovered GreaseMonkey’s music generation tool so I’ll be using that alongside sfxr for sound and music.
That said… lets see the photos

Breakfast: Porridge with apple sauce and milk
I got a dslr but I'll be using my galaxy s2 since it syncs with my computer without cables
