First day of FLO∀T 0

A game where you control the gravity. Main mechanics and sprites are completed. I'll submit it after making better designed levels and more sprites, especially as spaceship props.

Hello everyone !
I'm in. I'll use Inkscape / Haxe / ESpir (custom framework based on HaxeFlixel) and I'll try to create a shoot'em'up with a rocket similar to the talkyIO one (those who knows, knows).
I spent the evening trying to find an idea interesting and doable, from tycoon game of small platform that must produce thrust with hydrogen and oxygen to rubber ball you launch from a big skytower passing by falling sand games, that was hard to find a sweet spot between interesting and that can be developped in a week end.
In the last LudumDare I had a game playable the saturday night, and that's very good to have a day to polish it (as opposed as being able to play the game for the first time 15minutes before the end). So a shoot em up should be a good scope.

I finished my first assets, now I'll implement the rocket.

Working a planet placing puzzle game.

All of the basic rendering code, controls and basic placing/removing mechanics are done.

I also have the fully developed idea in mind already.

Pending:

  • Animation
  • Simulation code.
  • Sound effects and maybe music.
  • Making fun levels.
  • Graphics if I have time. I don't mind leaving it super minimal but if possible I'll add some visual flair.

I haven't gotten to writing any code yet since I had to handle some other random stuff before starting. I did get almost all the art and level design done though.

The game idea is extra silly this time. The stream chat voted 90% in favor of restricting me to a 4 color palette.

Woohoo let's do this! 0

Hi everyone! I've done a handful of game jams of different types over many years, so excited to hop in to this one! Just need to remember to keep the scope small haha

I'll be using Godot/GDScript, and likely Aseprite for pixel art. For sound/music I'll have to see what fits as the prototype progresses!

Good luck everyone!

Good Luck ! 0

First ever game jam, @daksh ty for the invite. Always wanted to take a shot at this but never made the time for it.
I've been looking to express myself creatively recently and this will help a lot.

My first game jam 1

Hey everyone, I've been told by my friend @Xeno (who's also participating) that it's tradition to make a post before the jam starts, so here is mine :)

I'm Daksh, a 21 y/o developer mainly interested in AI/ML. I've always loved games and have wanted to make my own, but no matter how many times I've attempted to get into them, I haven't been able to find the consistency to see a game through. After watching DaFluffyPotato's video, like many others did, I was motivated to join the jam and am aiming to develop and complete my first game!

I'm excited to be a part of this event and meet new people along the way. All the best everyone!
