I predict that everyone who participated in the WARMUP will do far better than average on this weekend’s main Ludum Dare compo. Well done, people!

Submitted mine. I’m very proud of it, although it pales in comparison to some to some of current entries.

Man I like my warmup game much more than the game I was thinking about making for the compo proper. Gives me a good idea for the competish!

Still too tired after the long crunch, too much Kobo II related stuff going on etc – so unsurprisingly, no warmup entry. I’ve spent the weekend refactoring, cleaning up and bughunting instead.

Will keep working on that, and release a public package of my tools + executive ASAP. Any deadline on that, BTW?

I must have submitted after the deadline but here is a link to my warm up game about a kitten and butterflies:

So, I haven’t even *started* yet… Well, not on an actual warmup game, that is. Apart from uploading videos and making noise, I’ve just been doing what I’m planning on continuing this week; cleaning up and getting my “tech” ready for the actual event.

Looking ok now, though; might still come up with something for the warmup after all, but that’d have to be REALLY small…

Really glad we’re doing this warm-up weekend. I’ve spent about 6 hours trying to get the SpriteManager (community resource) working in Unity3D, and have failed miserably :p The 2D support in Unity is miserable (and that’s being kind). I’ll probably write my own routines for sprites between now and LD22.

I can’t seem to comment on my submitted entry.
How will I give patch notes for my awful “game” now haha.

Thanks for this, I was just making notes on how to prepare for next weekend and then this pops up.

Of course now I’m stuck on how to make a game out of this. I’m going to wrap some content and levels around this tomorrow but for now here’s the prototype for you to play with:

In case anyone has the opposite problem from me here’s the flash code, go nuts:

My theme is ‘Trust’.

Cake! I don’t even know what Cale is..

The idea is brilliant.

The ‘playing games’ video made my day.

And my theme is: … Cale.

Keeps giving me “quantum physics.” How do you make that into a game? I can only hope the actual theme won’t be that.

Time to prepare for the competition by pretending it’s already here!

Alright, let’s do this! I’ll probably just do some random stuff to get a little more experience with FlashPunk.

My challenge is to finishes several parts of my current project and begin the tests of the beta version. So I can participate in LD with a clear conscience.

Very good idea, I’ll see how quickly I can throw together a quick prototype When it’s done, it’ll be here: http://sandbox.lakehomegames.com
