Finished My Warmup Game!

Wow!

These were some great 12 hours of coding.

I managed to:

  • Make a platformer
  • Using flan (for the first time)
  • Adding graphics (kinda)
  • Adding music
  • Trying justin.tv broadcasting
  • Getting ready for the real thing
  • Actually finish a game

It went very at the overall. I had some problems with using flan because it was my first time using it but I managed to get over this problem.

The theme that my friend suggested to me : Dimensional

Link To Play : Multidimensional Kid

 

Warm Up!

So i’m also doing the warm up!

My friend gave me the theme: “dimension”

This is my game idea:

There are two players playing the same level but in other dimensions, one blue and one red.

You control them both, if you press the left key the both move to the left and the and if the right key they both move to the right and so on.

There are places where only the red player can pass and places where only the blue player can pass.

There are places where only the red player will die and places where only the blue player will die.

Their goal is to get to the end of the level without getting dead.

Also i’m checking my livestream at justin.tv.

ToDo:

  • Finish the programming
  • Doing graphics
  • Adding levels
  • Doing homeworks

Good Luck Everyone!

After a pretty good mini LD I think that it is a good time for the real thing.

I am going to use:

  • As3 – FlashDevelop
  • Flixel
  • Chronolapse
  • Dyyno (I think that I’m going to do a live stream)
  • Alot of candies chocolate water cookies…
  • Skype (For friend’s encouragement)
  • Graphics tools (GraphicsGale, Inkscape etc)
  • Sfxr and maybe Aviary’s Myna
  • 48 Hours

So good luck every one and happy programming!

YAY! Finally finished day one!

For a first time on Ludum Dare we were pretty good(I think) and we had alot fun!

We managed to build our game far ahead than what we expected.

Timelapse of the fisrt day on youtube (-:

We have some tweaks ideas for tomorrow but generally our game is pretty finished!

I will sleep good now. Good night! (or maybe good morning?)

It Is Playable!

We are progressing very fast and our game is finally getting his real shape!

Everything works O.K. and the game is pretty stable and playable!

The main idea of the game:

There are many slimes(or maybe microbes/viruses?) at three different colors that are roaming on the screen.

You have to put the blue slimes on the blue area, the red ones on the red area and so on…

While a slime is not on his area he lose some health. If a slime is on the wrong area he lose double health.

When a slime lose all of his health he dies(obviously). When a slime is on his right area he stays there till the end of the game!

ToDo:

+ Add menu screen, help screen etc

+ Add score(high score board?)

+ Add levels

+ Spawn slimes at randomly places, times and amount

+ Add more awesome graphics

+ Think about more cool features!

+ Decide if they are slimes or whatever they are!(Please help us)

 

Progressing…

Yes!

The squares and the rectangles are working good! Oh yeah!

Programming speed is pretty fast (yay me!). And my partner is working on better graphics than mine (I still think that squares are cool).

Good Luck Every One!
