So our first Ludum Dare is over.

Firstly I would like to share the timelapse I’ve recorded with you all (There’s a bit of gameplay at the end of it).

 

 

The game can be found here:

Now onto the pros and cons.

The pros:

– I learned a few new things along the way.

– I have a much better understanding of developing with XNA now.

– We ended up with a game that could turn into something fun with alittle more work.

– It was a blast!

– Posting these blogs and talking to new people doing the weekend was fun.

– Playing other peoples games and seeing new interesting concepts.

– Getting feedback on our own game of course.

 

The cons:

– I should probably have prepared some of the basic and core code before the contest started as I spend way too much time doing that once the theme was announced.

– Partly because of the previous I didn’t get to implement all the stuff we had planned.

– I ran into a few problems along the way (Some easy to fix, others were just bizarre).

 

I now know what to do and what to avoid for next time and I’m definitely going to participate in the next Ludum Dare!

I will not continue to play all the awesome games that’s been submitted!

 

 

Thank you!
