I finished! Well, not quite. Of course I’d like to spend another week completing this game. But all in all iit was a very enlightening experience. I’ll be sure to come back for more. Thanks everyone! I’m looking forward to playing all the games and even slightly more I’m looking forward to my bed

Good night folks!

Oh and a final screenshot:

Here I am on day 2. Has been a couple of hours now and I have some player interaction implemented.

Still way to go… a lot of missing behaviors and graphics. I’m afraid there won’t be any time for balancing or proper polishing

That’s it for me on the first day of the competition. It’s been very interesting. Nah, it’s been a BLAST ^^!

Here’s my progress:

- House for the islanders: check

- Self-sustaining behavior without player intervention: check

- Overhead display: check

What’s missing: unfortunately the whole player interaction. Without the player’s intervention the islanders  stroll around , grab food from the house when necessary and sleep when they are sleepy and breed 8).
But they won’t gather food and won’t build new houses. That’s where the player comes in. Well, at least that’s the plan. Don’t ask me about the goal of the game, yet. Tomorrow will be a busy day. I’m looking forward to it.

Now I have populated my island. The guys and girls run around quite randomly right now, but the guys do hunt for girls occasionally

I thought I’d also mention that the island is created randomly every time.

Well it’s been 3 hours now and I had to fight a strange problem with giant firefox memory consumption due to gradients…

Here’s my island so far. I guess, I’m way to slow…

Hi,

so I’ll be doing this for the first time. And, unfortunately, I won’t have the total of 48 hours. So we’ll see how it’ll turn out.

The idea: A tiny island with tiny people. You have to guide them to do necessary work to survive.

I’m gonna do it with JS, HTML5 maybe Kinetic.JS and maybe something for sound, I don’t know what, yet.

Have fun everyone!
