MiniLD #24 Scheming

Posted by

Hey, I’m back for more after vanishing for a while due to crunch time at my day job.

My current plan for MiniLD #24 is a jump ‘em up similar to Cannabalt but with the player simultaneously controlling two or three with slightly differing abilities. It might turn out horribly tricky but at least then it will satisfy the “Game must end in 60 seconds” naturally. :D

I will be using the sprite engine I made for LD #18, with a few bits bolted on (support for sound). It can be found on github.

There will be 2 or 3 playable characters because I haven’t decided if the third character will be playable yet. It will either be running to escape like the others or the game will be set in its gut. More on that later. :)

Theme: Will be one of true love, tainted love and Tetris is now a game.
Limitations: 2 colours, 1 button only (per character, will be 2 or 3 total).
Rules: Game must be code complete in the first 3 hours, if not, must start over. NO CODING AFTER THAT.
