This is Koma! He is an amputee cow who borrowed some tech to be able to move around.

Art Time-lapse

Unfortunately, the graphics don’t really make a complete set.  I think they came out decently for my first time, though.  They were all produced by rotoscoping photographs that I found online.

Sprites! Get ‘em while they’re hot!

Apologies in advance for any amateurishness you encounter… this is the first time I’ve done pixel art, really. It’s been pretty fun.

Included in zip file: A variety of props and animated sprite sheets; see readmes therein for explanation. I also included animated gifs and the original .ase files from “Allegro Sprite Creator,” a nifty paint app.

This is a real mixed bag, including everything from pretty flowers to an exploding cloud. Bonus points if you manage to fit all of this into your game.

basically shoved everything onto a “sprite sheet” of sorts.  it’s .png and the white is actually transparency. so yeah!

You never specified how it flys!

I’m just gonna draw stuff, and if somebody finds any of it useful, then great.

EDIT: Moved Wormthing below. I’m going to draw a bunch of front-on things, so they can go together in a game.

Cow Head

I don't know what the heck it is, but you're going to drink it.

I-ma star!

Need sleep, not a whole lot here but I’m sure it’s enough for someone’s epic. Apologies in advance.

Your theme is…

Flying Cow Adventure

Good luck!

EDIT: If you’re stuck, feel free to forget the ‘adventure’ part and just make your graphics/games about Flying Cows.

This is my first ludum dare, and wow, 15th place??? I’m really excited right now. Thanks to everyone that voted for me and everyone else who contributed and made this competition as fun as it was!

SOME OF MY CREW STARVED TO DEATH

I’ll miss you forever, Frank!

I love that guy. He was a last minute addition but did add a bit of humor to an otherwise morbid game.

People, I was trying to watch some timelapse videos on youtube of Ludum Dare #17 and there is a lot of videos named only “Ludum Dare #17″. It would be nice to use the game name on the video like “Ludum Dare 17 – Timelapse – Gaiadi”.

Thanks, and nice videos

I have 7 votes out of 21 that noted sound in my game, but there is no sound at all. I assume some of them didn’t know they could leave a blank but there are values above 1 , which mean theses are random votes.Anyway, congrats everyone !

For part one, head on over here This post will continue on the 4th comment. I’m going to respond to every one!

First I would like to say thanks to everyone who took the time to play my game. My music took 15th place this time. I look forward to next time when I will add sound effects as well.

Now for the responses to the comments….

Yay #7 in Fun and Overall! Congrats and thanks to everyone who participated and voted! I only got to rate about 66% of the games thanks to a hectic couple of weeks, but I’ll definitely still have a look at some of the ones I missed.

Update: More final version released, (includes fix to the double jumping issue mentioned in the comments), here’s the mod db page for it http://www.moddb.com/games/island-hopping/

Thanks to homework and all sorts of unexpected junk these last couple weeks I wasn’t able to get this ready until now, I still have yet to make a web interface for viewing the high scores or a tutorial, but whatever…

Here’s what I’m calling the version 1.2 beta, it’s probably fairly buggy and missing things, but I think/hope it is significantly better than the compo version.

Tutorial is listed as an option, but I never got around to it, so just ignore it for now. Also, keep in mind that this is my first attempt at online leaderboard stuff, so I might disable it at any point (or it might break) due to unforeseen events.

Released a more final version on Mod DB: http://www.moddb.com/games/island-hopping/

Changes:

• Improved double jumping (also double jumping is removed for hard and insane modes)
• Online high scores
• Local high scores
• More options (toggle music, allow internet access, field of view, etc)
• OGRE dialogue thing removed in favor of ingame options
• Jumping is now mapped to all letter keys, up arrow, ctrl/alt/shift/enter/space and mouse clicking
• All of those above keys also restart the game now (there is a 1/2 second delay to keep you from clicking right through it though)
• Misc bugfixes
• And probably more but I’m drawing a blank now…

Anyways, I’d appreciate any feedback, and I hope you enjoy it! I’ll probably keep working with it for a week or two, so suggestions are welcome.
