LD 39 July 28–31, 2017

My first proper game Shadows of Athenazi

shofos

This is my first proper game which is not a beta or liced with bugs so I’m hoping you’ll check it out and give some feedback to me.

It is a simple adventure/puzzle game, where you play a cyborg trapped in a bunker, it features shooting and blades.

Can you navigate the maze using your limited sensors to get the 3 parts necesarry to upgrade your shielding and get out.

I used the Blender Game Engine to make it, it is  currently available for windows and linux. I’m hoping to localize it to mac some time aswell.

So I’ve updated the files for some consistency and clarity.

The Mind of Marlo - Our LD#33 entry has been released on Steam.

Who remembers Ludum Dare #33? We sure don't but apparently we made this game for it! Since then we've completely recreated it as a strange documentary film/adventure game.

"It's called Spontaneous Silly Head Syndrome and it affect fewer than 1 in 7 billion..."

Meet Marlo Davenport.

MOM - Screenshot 1.png

Marlo was born with a curious case of Spontaneous Silly Head Syndrome, a rare disorder which makes the individual suffer temporary transformations. How does Marlo cope with such a condition, is there a cure?

Join Marlo in this one of a kind narrative driven, mockumentary style adventure game. Learn about Marlo's life through compelling monologues, solve fun puzzles to help him overcome his odd condition and figure out just what the heck is happening to him! Not everything is as it seems as you'll discover unravelling Marlo's strange story. What happened to Marlo's father? Who is this Linda he keeps talking about? Why does he keep changing into a slug?

Presented as a lo-res documentary with fully voice acted talking heads, The Mind of Marlo is best described as an absurd combination of TV show The Office and classic point and click adventure games of old.

Features

  • A compelling narrative told in an interactive documentary style.
  • Over 20 minutes of recorded dialogue
  • Intuitive Point and Click gameplay
  • Fairly nice music
  • Square Nudity
  • At least 3 good jokes
  • Drama!

Plug Me Steam version UPDATE #1

Hi Guys! :smile:

I'm working on the Steam verson of Plug Me (ranked 4th in the last Ludum Dare 39)!

At the moment I created 50 brand new levels with Bosses.

Here you can see one of the Bosses, Mrs. Bobox:

Plug Me Boss 2.gif

Basically, because I have limited space per level, I add a new trap every time you hit the Boss! What do you think about it?

if you want to know when the game is ready just follow me on my social (Facebook or Twitter) or just follow me on my main site havana24.net! :stuckouttongue:

Our first game on Steam

Hello, my fellow developers,

our game THE ADVENTURES OF SAM CARLISLE: THE HUNT FOR THE LOST TREASURE is now live on Steam.

It is a 2D platformer with puzzle elements. You need to help Sam to get his treasure back, but later found out that the treasure has some other value to Sam.

Go and buy it and tell us what you think of it.

Voodoo Lockdown Enhanced Edition

Howdy!

I have finally now finished and published the enhanced and extended version of my LD39 game.

voodoo-lockdown-ext-cover.gif voodoo-lockdown-cover.gif

The base idea of the game remains the same as it was before but I've fixed a lot of issues and added loads of new content. Please let me know if you decide to try it and find some bugs or other issues with it. I'm still developing it solo and even my friends seem to be too lazy to give it a proper testing.

Playable or downloadable on my itch.io: Voodoo Lockdown

Now I can actually start mentally preparing myself for LD40...

So some theme suggestions or something

With 3 weeks to go until Ludum Dare and my second LD we got to get some great theme suggestions in.

Personally I won't be upset over whatever theme we end up getting. The themes I suggested were.

1: Surrealism

2: The Final Battle

3: Light and Dark.

I'm not sure if I'll participate or not ;(

If I'm going to participate, it'll be my third ludum dare in a row. But unfortunately I have exams after the weekend of the jam :worried: and I'll have to review for it. If my parents are gonna' let me in I'm gonna use : - Unity 2017.2(or HTML5 + JS I dont rllly know) - Gimp, Aseprite(BETA), PISKEL. - Audacity, BoscaCeoil, Bfxr.

Hope all the best for you guys and Have a nice jam (maybe with out me:cry:)!

I'm in, for the sixth time.

For this 40th season, I'll settle for something totally different.

I will be using BASIC (not Visual Basic, just BASIC) to create a pure text-based kinetic novel. No sound, no graphics. Just pure literary goodness using your imagination.

As for the reason why I'm doing this, it's all about going back to my roots. I've learned BASIC way back in elementary school, and I still have some handwritten BASIC code in my old diary.

So, let's bring it on!

Theme Voting Round 1 - Thoughts?

Just voted, my favourites are

Shipwrecked

Inconvenient superpowers

System failure

Some others I'm 50/50 about:

Into the unknown

Everything is connected

What's everyone else's thoughts? I'm pretty keen now!

I'm In!

I will be participating in LD40 - wow, seems like not so long ago I did my first one. :)

I will be using: - Unity C# - standard Unity Cinemachine for Camera - Photoshop/Illustrator/Inkscape - Bosca Ceoil/Other Sound Editor - Blender - if doing 3D

I really can't wait for Friday!

Oh well

Ugh, looks ike I won't have time to make a proper game this time. But if anyone needs a decent programmer and gamedesigner, an alright pixel artist, or a guy, who want to try and write a story/dialogues for the game, I am more than willing to help, so feel free to contact me on Twitter or Telegram (@fshpsmgc) or somewhere here

LD #40

I'm in for this one. Going to be using Java with LibGDX, Paint.NET and bfxr. Fingers crossed it's a good theme.

We're in! Let's get ready!

The 40th Ludum Dare and finally we know how to spell Dare thanks to the keynote!

As the last times I have teamed up with Skyane to get the fun started. We'll see if this time we maybe get some more to join in our office.

We will be using * Unity * Photoshop * Visual Studio * Audacity * ...

The other tools we decide on when we know the style our game will be in.

If you want to follow our development check twitch as we might be streaming some parts or all the time.

We wish you fun and great ideas, and we'll see you all at least when the game voting starts!

Not going to participate ☹

I will not participate in this jam 🙁. Why? Well I have THREE exams this week (the week after the jam) and I have to study. I have : Maths, Arabics and English. I liked the theme and I had some ideas for the gameplay and after the jam I'll make a game related to the theme.

part1 done

Now it's time to replace the "add coins" debug command.

I'm in!

This is my third time joining the LD and I'm so excited!
