Just some insights. We ran into a BIG bug.
Just joking it's already fixed. 🎉

And I'm done

I really struggled to find a game idea that fitted the theme and really grabbed my interest. But I made a game none the less. So please check out Star Crystals, once you've uploaded your own games of course.

Enjoy! :8ball:

A competition to harvest

I don't think I'm gonna make it

I have to work Monday so I don't have time then in the jam, but right now shooting for the jam I've got a solid 10 hour chunk of time ahead of me. It will be my last. I'm not super confident I will make it in time yet, but.

Sadly Tapping Out

I've made some great progress with my z-machine interpreter in Unity and this is going to be super useful for a future projects involving interactive fiction. However I've just proven way too busy this weekend. Today's the last day of my xmas holidays and I've got lots of things I'm wrapping up before work tomorrow. Disappointed as I really wanted to keep my LD streak going but this has just come at a bad time.

Good to luck to everyone else and I'll see you at the next one.

UI is not fun

Its good to have a nice gameplay and all but at some point you need to think about the structure around it. startRace.gif

It is 1 question and I will post the results later.

7 days to harvest - MVP

Wow guys, it was a tough day but we finally made our way to MVP.

We have all the necessary mechanics and assets to call it a game, but now we need to focus more on a features which will make it tasty because just one Tractor-S Mark5™ is not enough.

As I told earlier “7 days to harvest” is a game about a common man convicted to harvest fields for his antisocial behavior. We decided to make a fresh take on a famous oldschool arcade game. I am curious if our players will recognize it.

Our sound designer finalized his new track and we totally love it. Me personally can't wait to show it.

We finally not blocking our level designer so he already did some great levels. And is working whole day to deliver some harvesting action. And as an old saying goes: "Harvesting is always fun with Tractor-S Mark5™" so everything should be fine.

We are on our way to make something we like and want to share. Stay tuned.

Bye Compo, Hello Extra!

I didn't manage to have a nice gameplay.

My little testing team got bored, and that is a sign. I am actually gifted with them, as my sons don't mind crude graphics but will kill a bad gameplay.

That said, they had a lot of good ideas, so I'd really like to try implementing them.

So Extra is the way it seems

Ramming into Trees is complete!

Yes, I generated random names for each tree in the game.

Now I will spend the rest of compo time doing absolutely nothing.
