Simple mechanics that still offered a decent amount of challenge.We're realizing a video with several games of the Ludum Dare #36. We made the same thing at the previous jam.\r\rCan you add your game on indiexpo.net ? (it's free) \rSo we can include also your game in the video ;) \rp.s. write #LDJAM in the game's description.

The idea is original and at least it challenges a bit! \r\rOne thing that could help, maybe you already thought about that, would be that clicking on the icon of the character would allow to control it, instead of clicking on the character itself. Actually that was the reflex I had first, and moreover at some point I got stucked with one of the character in the hole and I couldn't chose the other one that could do it because it was out of the field of view of the camera.\r\rOh and also, at a moment the first character died, I was left with the two others and I was controlling them at the same time, maybe that is a thing you would like to look into it. :)"},{"author_name":"gonutz","author_uid":"110557","time":"Aug 31, 2016 @ 9:28pm","epoch":1472678580,"text":"I cannot download your data folder, there is a server error, I tried it twice.

Crap. We were to slow so.\r\n\r\nAnyway, The game was going to be Logic-Platformer, where player can move 3 different characters on the map and combine their skills to overcome challanges around the level. \r\n\r\nTo \"play\", Press 1,2 or 3 to change character, WASD to walk and E to interact... alt+f4 to quit :) \r\n\r\nA lot of systems done. Camera controller, movement, half of HUD. Interaction system, animations... \r\n\r\nUnfortunatelly we did not make it to build and set-up at least one whole level. We do not play any sound in the game, also some buttons do not work and we did not made intro. (look at the screens with text ). \r\n\r\nSo. Conclussion is: too much ideas, too big dreams for this weekend, if you like the idea of the game write a comment, and we will send you complete game when its ready.\r\n\r\nTO DO:\r\n- entry\r\n- HUD\r\n- tutorial for the game\r\n- more levels (enemies, assets etc.)\r\n- sound\r\n\r\n#LDJAM","title":"AncientVenture"}
