PixelSlaves — Cancelled

Saturday, August 9th, 2008

Well, I fail .. but here’s my concept art:

So the concept was you have your PixelSlaves build your PixelTower .. and you could whip / feed / water them, and give them more straw and mud to build your PixelTower. But, I’m not really sure if this game idea is in good taste, nor am I sure if it would really work out to be fun anyways. So I think I’ll leave the experience to your imagination.

I’m also a bit distracted by my iphone Galcon project, so I’ll be working on that a bit, but I’ll still hang out for the LD festivities today :) I might even bring in a surprise!!!

Crystal colony.

I tried thinking out of the box and failed miserably.

The theme was growth, I thought of the idea of crystal growth and pretty much made an incomprehensible game with crystals in it. Hardly anyone figured out how to play the sodding thing. The final insult was that I ran out of time so you could build yourself an army but had no-one to fight.

The bright side was I was quite pleased with the overall look and User interface. It’s a basic RTS engine with minimap and group selection, resource collection etc.

Some of the development was stalled due to me not knowing how to debug. I wrote the game In Blitz max, having downloaded the demo version on the thursday before the compo. I didn’t figure out how the debugger worked (or even that it had one) until sunday.
