Progress
Here is a picture showing my current progress on Tiny World Corporation
Click on the image and you can see it actual size.
I have made less progress than I was hoping so far as I have been learning lua and love2d for this project and therefore ran into a few problems early on that I would have been able to fix sooner if I had more knowledge of the tools. Now I have got use d to love2d I think it is pretty awesome.
Tiny World Corporation
So, just had a shower and came up with an idea. You play as a person working for the tiny world corporation, a company that purchases tiny bodies in the universe (asteroids etc) and attempts to turn a profit by building accomodation, shops and factories. It will be similar in style to city building games, however there will be an emphasis on trying to maximise the profit making potential of the small area you have on each world.
My inspirations are the tiny levels in the roller coaster tycoon games, and some of the levels of theme hospital where you have to accomplish with not much space.
I will be using löve with lua for the game, gimp and inkscape for graphics, Bfxr for sound, and some kind of music generation tool for music.
