“A masterpiece of indie gaming” – scott joplin

A fantastical adventure for – YOU – the guy in the game.

SethR has offered a prize of $500,000 unmarked USD to the first person/robot to complete this quest of epic proportions.

The logo should be in black and white.
It’s easier to print, and it is easier to adapt.

Please don’t go with one that is very detailed, either!

I got a dungeon and maze generator working, but then I realized that I really never like to play roguelikes and that the there really isn’t any other console based game that could fit the theme.

Maybe next time.

Going to do a console roguelike.

Hopefully I can use the 3d console stuff somehow.

Look at this demo of basecode

Basecode is like 90% done.

And I’m entering contest.

Going to make an awesome game.

No basecode (yet).

Who wants to join hardcore club?

*Only old, non-OO languages:
Assembly
C
pascal
fortran
BASIC (non-visual of course)
etc

*No libraries except:
standard libraries
OS libraries (windows.h, POSIX, etc)
Very old and classic libraries (such as conio.h)

*All content must be created after theme announced. No basecode or resources.

who is up for challenge?

The upgrades work.
The enemy has good AI.

Now, to finish it!

It’s coming along.

Gonna write a ship AI so I can actually play it.

Upgrades!

You get to put 5 of these on your space ship.
You win them from killing enemies.

Yay! It moves around! Now, to add bullets!

Reminds me of spacewar.

I’m going to do a star-control-like-battle-game.

Every weapon will be a combination of 5 parts.

You will 1v1 a random opponent.

The hardest part will be writing a playable AI.

BUGS:

1. Tiny creatures that live in ground
2. Problems with computers
3. Disease of body
4. Pants12 bugs

Hopefully I can scrap together something for LD18.

I want to use C++, SDL, GL, etc – but if theme is something that I can’t achieve quickly, I’ll probably switch to GM to get it done faster.

Tools:
gimp
audacity
fl studio/anvil
paint

So I hopefully fixed the strange bug happening on other computers. The game should actually be playable! I also fixed a stupid typo that was causing random errors.
Check it out!

Download

So hopefully there aren’t any glitches with it.

Is anyone doing a game under the name “Island Guns”?

If not, I’m taking it.

The TD is almost done! I just have to fix all the glitches, test, and polish!

Power has come to the volcanic island!

It’s not scientifically accurate, but still works!

The basic outline of the menu for my TD is done!

It also has building placement.

Going to sleep now.
