\"Title\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Story behind the production of Treasure Hunter:<\/strong><\/p>\n

LD29 was my first real LD. I entered a miniLD before so somehow I knew what I was up to. Nevertheless I was completly surprised of the theme that for the first 2 hours I had no clue what kind of game I should make. Bisides of that I had to do otherthings that sometimes interrupted my workflow. But eventually I came up with an idea in 2D dispite the fact that I never used Unity2d before (I had to train myself while I was making the game). The idea resulted in Treasure Hunter<\/a>. After a couple of hours (ca.\u00a0 21), I am quite satisfied with the result. Even though I couldn’t implement the story inside my game but I was able to implement a online Highscore<\/a>.<\/p>\n

What Went Right:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. I was able to get a quite satisfiying result at release time.<\/li>\n
  2. The 2d art, was new to me. But I am happy with the result I achieved.<\/li>\n
  3. In an early stage, I recognised that my first game idea was too ambitious for a 48 hour Compo so I changed it.<\/li>\n
  4. Usage of those tools and techniques I used before went quite smooth.<\/li>\n <\/ol>\n

    What Went Wrong:<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. I used some techniques and tools I never used before and I had to teach myself all those things. (2D, Sound etc.)<\/li>\n
    2. I didn’t used any kind of background music.<\/li>\n
    3. I didn’t polished the game. ( I had no time for that.)<\/li>\n
    4. I could have made the gamehandling a bit more intuitve and self explanatory.<\/li>\n
    5. I didn’t focused on the story I had in mind. Therfore I could only tell the sory in my description.<\/li>\n <\/ol>\n

      If you didn’t played my game and\/or rated it. Please play and rate it here<\/a> and have fun.<\/p>","time":"May 1st, 2014 7:58 am","title":"Treasure Hunter: Post Mortem"}
