Ludum Dare 52 January 6–9, 2023

Harvester harvesting!!

Finally I've managed to create something. It is hard to learn how do make a game during ludum dare 😅.

Nevertheless I'm happy that my idea comes to life 😁. There's still a lot to do though. Seems as a peaceful harvest, but something bad is coming 🔥🔥🔥

Harvesting at the edge of desertification

Kind of have a working mvp. Time to create some levels, then focus on further developing the visuals and sound. First Ludum Dare, first Pico8 game. Has been delightful so far!

It works well !

The Grim Harvest Continues

Our game's coming along well. The character models are done - those are always my hardest part - and as you can see, the soul harvest is yielding a bumper crop this year.

Here are some glamor* shots of the character models.

* That term has never been used more loosely lmao

We're into a new project!

Within the harvest theme we chose genre - point and click adventure in a noir setting imageem2023-01-08/em01-18-07 копия.jpg This time we have to work separetely, so we have this online mind map for the ideas

Harrr-vest progress

Yep, still making a visual novel about a vest disguised as a pirate.

I finished making the first of four chapters. There will be a "good" ending, a bad ending and a secret better ending that should be pretty hard to get.

I will be using asset packs this time. So it will be a jam submission and I'm opting out of audio and graphics categories.

Need Opinions

Which UI option looks better? The first where the player's coin balance is always shown and the second where it's only shown when the shop is pulled up?

That looks like harvesting to me. Now to add some actual gameplay.

Option to "Follow a game" just for one Jam

TL;DR I would like to have an option to wishlist a Ludum Dare game.

@pov I would love to have an option to follow/wishlist a game just for that one particular event.

Sometimes I see a post and I'm like "I would really love to play this game after it's done!".

I know you can already follow people, but honestly I don't want to have hundreds of followed people on my profile because that way I completely lost track of why and who I even followed.

First ever building system - that took a long time!

Hello folks! Spent most of the day learning how to build an appropriate building system for my isometric management game. Everything is bare bones right now, but I'm so please I finally got it working. Onwards! building.gif

There is progress!

Today I made the plant-growth algarithm and the globe on which the plants will be seeded. I had LOTS of issues with SIN and COS functions today ^^"

Here a sneakpeek:
