Second Ludum Dare

It’s nearly time to start making a game for my second Ludum Dare. My first Ludum Dare was a complete failure, it was absolutely terrible. The game wasn’t finished at all, the graphics were terrible, sounds weren’t all that great either. Let’s hope I can do better this time 馃榾

Tools:

  • Game Maker Studio PRO
  • GIMP
  • FL Studio
  • Audacity

Looking For Pixel Artist

My name is Fletcher (Listrix) and I’ve been making games for the past few years using Game Maker: Studio Pro. For the past few years I’ve been trying to either make my own sprites or find sprites on the internet to use but now I’m looking for a partner to make games with, someone who is willing to provide free and animated pixel art.

I like making arcade style games, I don’t tend to make fully fleshed-out games because it takes too long and I often lose motivation, so making quick, but enjoyable, little games works best for me, hence my interest in Ludum Dare. I haven’t released any games because of the lack of graphics and due to this I have lost the majority of my projects. But I feel like working with someone else will give me more motivation to improve my game making skills and be able to get some games out there.

As stated above, I like to make smaller arcade style games meaning I don’t use many, or complex, graphics. I tend to stick to 16×16 sprites due to my lack of drawing skills and but I’m willing to expand to 32×32 or even 64×64. The size of the sprites isn’t an issue, I’m mainly looking for someone who is able to create animations.

Things to note: I do not currently sell my games, I don’t even have any games released, but your name will be in the credits of every game you have made sprites for. If I do eventually decide to sell my games then I am open to discussing how the revenue will be split.

One final thing to note is that I am not the greatest game programmer in the world so please don’t expect me to produce professional quality games, this is only a hobby of mine. I am looking for someone who does pixel art as a hobby and is willing to provide free pixel art, not someone who is looking to sell their pixel art.

Hello there, Listrix!

Not Going To Finish Game For MiniLD 64

I was planning on entering the MiniLD 64 but my partner and I had a few complications and we’re not able to get it in :(

We’re going to keep working on this game though because we think it’s a good idea for a game but we’re not sure how long it will take

If you just need some extra time, I’ll likely keep the submissions open for an extra week or so. I actually ended up being really busy this weekend myself so I wasn’t able to participate, but I’m still thinking about pulling something a late entry.

Second Ludum Dare :)

This is going to be my second Ludum Dare and I’m going to use this as a learning experience for Unity. I’ve used Unity a bit before and go the hang of it but then I left the gamedev world. Now I’m back, downloaded Unity and as soon as I figure out what kind of game I’m going to make I’m going to start looking at source code and tutorials to figure out how to make it. Probably not going to finish the game within the Ludum Dare time period but I’ll keep working on it and see how it goes :)
