With hearing the theme “exploration” my first thought was cave exploration… As I always wanted to create a platformer it decided to do something that should be a bit like pitfall in caves, or so…. Still my biggest problem is that I get stuck in too much details and it was quite exhausting to create some kind of engine that let me create the in blender.

I think I have now a more or less good base to start with gameplay tomorrow. Here a first screenshot:

Usually I planned to publish the game (if it will be one) as java webstart. But actually it does only work for me from the commando-line at the moment. It would be nice if someone could try to start this from the browser (I didn’t succeed).Nevertheless I think I will have to provide it as downloadable archive….

But now I need some sleep. Adios and cu tomorrow,
