So yeah, this is my 3rd entry at the ludum dare, and I think it’s my best one. I’m kinda proud of it, so here’s the story :
\n WWR :<\/strong>
\n – Coding : I made all the core gameplay + the important features within a day.
\n – The concept : I was afraid the idea of not seeing your character wouldn’t work, but i actually managed to avoid this. The gameplay seems enjoyable ( thanks for the feedbacks :3 ).
\n – Time management : Coding and art were easy, so I had a lot of time for tweaking (especially hitboxs and level design).
\n – Music : 1st time ever on fruity loops, I spent about 2 hours making glitchy sounds and made a minimalistic OST for this entry.
\n – Art : Managing a black and white art like this was really hard, the characters had to be silouhettes on a simple background. Took me a lot of time though D:<\/p>\n

\n – Having an idea : Like a lot of jammers, the theme afraid me D:
\n – The light\/shadow system : I had no time coding a light engine for this, especially because of the level design.
\n – Making a tutorial : I also spent time trying to explain the game to players as they can start not seeing their own character.<\/p>\n

What i learned :<\/strong>
\n – game maker is always more awesome than you think.
\n – combining ideas\/games\/concepts is great ( here samurai gunn meets samurai jack )
\n – fruity loops is friggin’ cool<\/p>\n

WTDN :<\/strong>
\n – I’m actually working on Double Edged extended, with the dynamic loght system I wanted to do, plus some other features I did not make. I’ll try to devellop it for the Winnitron 1000.<\/p>\n

So here was my minimal post mortem, now if you’d like to play my entry, the link is here<\/a><\/p>\n
