Broken Cave Robot

Wow… I’m still shaking from the excitement of that final crunch.  I worked on the game pretty much all day today only breaking for necessary bodily functions.  Got it submitted less than one minute before the deadline.  And I’m really pleased with how it came out!  Yesterday I hated it, but today everything seemed to click together like a jigsaw puzzle.

And I had a BLAST making the music.  I recorded and edited it all in Audacity.  I performed it on a little quarter-size Denver acoustic guitar I bought a couple weeks ago for a camping trip ($100 CAD).  I also used a Bluesband harmonica (just a cheap little thing).  As for the microphone… it’s just a crappy $40 Logitech thing from Future Shop I bought for voicechat in online games.  I uploaded the soundtrack as a separate ZIP file as well, for anyone who’s interested: http://mattmakesgames.com/soundtracks/BrokenCaveRobotSoundtrack.zip

Overall I’m happy with all the weird little ideas I got to try out in this game.  The first two days consisted of me dumping every idea I had into the game – today was me sewing it all together.

    Cool, I played it, not really my type, but still cool.
