We finished Sanity last night with literally minutes left on the clock. I’m not sure if it’s shown up on the Ludum Dare website yet but you can play it here: http://sandbox.yoyogames.com/games/191217-sanity

Hey guys, shard123 and qwezc here again with another update on our game Sanity. We’ve finished the basic gameplay and are now working on the rest of the levels and other refinements like music and sound. By the way, the best way to follow our progress is to follow me on twitter: @tman_BOSS

Here’s another rockin’ screenshot, we’ve added enemies and shooting:

Hey guys,  shard123 and qwezc here with updates on our Ludum Dare 22 game, Sanity.   The gameplay is going to be pretty simple, the hard part is the graphics. We’re doing all hand drawn artwork for the objects so it will be time consuming. We’ve made some good progress but don’t have enough gameplay for a demo or anything, but what we do have is a  pretty neat title screen:

Hey guys, I just finished my warm up for Ludum Dare 22, Cannibal Crunch. You can play it here: http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-22-warmup/?action=preview&uid=3824

I’m super excited for Ludum Dare 22 and I can’t wait to see the great games that you guys make!

Its shard123 here again, and of course I’m in for the Jam. I’ll probably be working with qwezc again. We’ve learned a lot this year when it comes to game  making so I’m excited to see what we can make.

Good luck everyone!

Hey guys, I’ve been realizing that I think there’s really not much more that I can do with Game Maker. I was wondering if you guys had any suggestions as to what platform I should move to next. Something similar to Game Maker but maybe a little more advanced.

This weekend is packed so I have really no chance of making anything. Oh well, when is the next Ludum Dare or MiniLD?

Hi everyone, I had a blast doing this Ludum Dare! I’m really excited for the next one, I think qwezc and I will be a lot more prepared now that we’ve done it before. Also, we’ll both be using the same software so we’ll be able to collaborate on coding more. We also found a nice music generator that will allow us to make music in a short period of time.  Now about the MiniLD. I’ll might enter in it, but because of school starting, I might not have enough time for it. But I’m hoping to least make something!

Hello everyone, a brand new version of Claustrophobia is now up on my site! It improves on the collision detection and music, as well as a bunch of other bug fixes and small improvements.

Check it out here:  http://shard123games.weebly.com/ludum-dare.html

Whew! Participating in the Jam was a lot of fun but really tiring. We managed to finish our game Claustrophobia with just a few hours to spare.  Check it out here!:  http://sandbox.yoyogames.com/games/184445-claustrophobia

Even with a late start, our entry for the jam is nearing completion. Our game is called Claustrophobia and is sort of a dungeon crawler/maze game with elements of puzzle games.

Here’s a screen shot:

do you have to create a time lapse or is it optional?

As long as nothing comes up I should be able to enter. I might enter the Jam if I’m going to be working with qwezc.

I’ll be using:

Game Maker (as usual)

and Gimp

I’ve been trying to learn how to program with Java in Eclipse but I’m not good enough to make anything fun. Do you guys know of any good tutorials?

Hey guys, I just wanted to show you guys a comparison between my first game and one of my latest games:

Compare my first game Ghosts and Diamonds,

to one of my latest games, The Struggle for Humanity:

http://sandbox.yoyogames.com/games/179700-the-struggle-for-humanity

Guns to Roses is finally complete! You can check it out under all the entries for this Mini LD. Your feedback is really appreciated, as I will continue to update this game!

I just uploaded a demo of my entry Guns for Roses on my site so try it out! Remember though, it’s nowhere near complete. =)

Try it out!: http://shard123games.weebly.com/ludum-dare.html

I made a lot of progress today! I’ll hopefully have a demo up tomorrow once I add some more game play.

Until then… Here’s a screenshot!

Just got back from vacation and I am getting right to work on making my entry. I’m thinking of making a pacifistic strategy game…

I’ll be using:

-Game Maker (again)

- A hip new drawing program I found called Paint.NET

Hello everyone. Im 99 percent sure that I’ll be participating in this MiniLD. I just hope that the theme is easy to do in Game Maker…

Hello again!  There’s a new version of The Struggle for Humanity that you can find here: http://thestruggleforhumanity.weebly.com/download.html at the games official website. The new version offers slightly improved graphics and various bug fixes and changes. Also, once you have the altar and click on the demigod god power,  you can click on a lady and make her create a demigod. Once the demigod is middle aged, you can control it by clicking it and moving it around with the arrow keys. If a demigod is selected and you press C you can build Stonehenge.

Hope you guys enjoy the new version!
