Ludum Dare

I'm a South African indie developer/do-it-all who has been mucking around with opcodes since 2004, blowing up VGA cards while trying to force it to use IBM8415 modes, drawing like crazy, all while standing on a wobbly footstool and playing the guitar with one hand. MULTITASKING.

In complete and utter seriousness, I am a solo-developer who just happens to enjoy the art and music sides of game development too. And design, don't forget the design.

And I uploaded the complete timelapse from it’s development:

Now I want to rest for a while; feeling burnt out.

I had fully intended to not enter this Ludum Dare, mostly because I managed to convince myself that I should be doing other things. No idea what those other things were now, but I’ll probably remember them again afterwards.

Anyway, the theme is a bit bland; I decided to make a ‘runner’ game.

Here’s a screenshot:

The game goes on until a certain point, randomly generating platforms (There is one consistent platform at the bottom of the screen). The challenge factor will be the introduction of collectible items and lots of rockets to dodge (Thus the game’s name). I’m intending for there to be a tank or war-machine of some sort at the end that you have to destroy somehow. Still working out the details.
