Got started.

I’m trying to participate to this game jam. Would be my second time. So far, I spent my time:

– Drawing the player sprite. It’s supposed to be some sort of trilobite/spaceship/submarine thingy. But alas, I’m not an artist, and I doubt I can teach myself pixel art in two days, so it’s horribly ugly, yet sadly not a placeholder.

– Drawing the level. I wanted some tile based system, and drawing a version of the tile for each 16 neighbourhood configuration is time consuming, even though I partially automated it.

Again, I’m using Love2D. I’m even starting for the same code as last game jam project, as you can see from my having the same bubble effet and same water level fading.

You can download what I have so far here: Archatrep V02.

But there is no gameplay yet.
