When The Sun Sets by Ravetcofx
This game is not as complete at all, probably because this was my first Ludum dare and I didt get the hang of managing my time.
Any way your main charecter is going to die in 10 secconds (when the sun sets) and in that time he goes through his memories, and finaly says goodbye to his wife on last time.
I plan on continuing development of this; eg adding more levels a deeper story and so on. Please give your comments, it the whole reason I did this :)
I did rush, so please let me know of any stupid things.
Notes:
Space or enter to start
You need a minimum java 1.6
The Window size is stupid, I will fix soon

Nice art and music though.
Thanks for the comments :)
I will give you some of my impressions, I hope this help you next time:
* At the title screen, I tried clicking "start" but nothing happened. If you are not going to do mouse input, do not place a "button" like on your screen, and tell the player as soon as possible what are the commands (space for jumping?)
* The platforming needs work. The jump is really short, but the character can somehow glitch into the next platform, even though visually he cant reach it.
* Also, when I played the second time around (after dying the first time), the game did not end when the sun reached the bottom of the screen. Check if you are resetting all your variables!
Thanks for the game, and best of luck next LD :-)
I can't jump?
I just got the jumping and made it to the top. I dont fully grasp whats going on though?
Jumping mechanic needs a lot of work. some more direction on the win/lose/gameplay?
I like the art/graphics a lot! good music!
Has potential for great mood and ambient game
thanks namrog84 for the feedback
and thank you ix aswell :)
That's my experience too. And I'm not sure what's up with the hunchback angel? And yes, the jumping needs a lot of work.
I like the graphics and the music though! It looks rough, but still pleasing, and the minimal animations work well.
Congratulations on finishing your first LD! I hope you'll be back for more later :)
