Now it&#8217;s time to go to bed.<\/p>\n <p>Tasks completed today:<\/p>\n <ul>\n <li>State-based game framework (using Slick&#8217;s base)<\/li>\n <li>Entity handling<\/li>\n <li>Rudimentary collision handling (using Slick geometry <code>intersect()<\/code>)<\/li>\n <li>A way to lose! Slamming into walls with too much velocity causes you to take damage. Hitting 0 gives you a game over.<\/li>\n <\/ul>\n <p>My current idea for the game is about solving puzzles and exploring by using strings of text found on <em>discovered<\/em> artifacts, collecting various power-ups along the way. You view your character from a bird&#8217;s-eye view, applying force with the WASD keys to fly about the screens of the game world. Simple enemies will pose a threat to you, as you (maybe?) don&#8217;t have any weapons to defend yourself.<\/p>\n <p>In any case, <strong>good night Ludum Dare<\/strong>! I shall be awake within 8 hours, ready to eat some scrambled eggs and drink some OJ!<\/p>\n <ul><\/ul>","time":"December 17th, 2010 11:22 pm","title":"Day 1: Epilogue"}
