Hi guys, after 3 days of pain(and enjoyment), I am finally presenting you my 1st ludum dare game – triple threat.
Triple threat is a 3-player puzzler game. The game depicts a fight between 3 different worlds(humans(Earth), martians(Mars), gorillas(Planet of the Apes 
)).

Why this game ?
I had this idea for almost a year(initially a board game) but wasn’t getting an occasion to develop it(probably because of other games(college projects)).
What this game is about ?
As the theme for ludum dare 30 is connected worlds, I tried my best to make the game as per the theme.
The game depicts a fight between three worlds. Three worlds fighting with each other to decided who’s superior.
The tokens can only move to the world’s which are connected to the block it’s already in/
Problems Faced
The initial(and primary) problem was the user input, I was not able to find a solution on how to move the tokens.
Solution – Created the red blocks for each block and turned them into buttons with each button hard coded with a function (there was no time for experiment).
The player turns were not in proper cycle. e.g. if all the tokens of a player are removed and his turn comes, he cannot move his tokens, hence, the game wouldn’t progress.
Solution – Solved using Boolean values and permutation & combination.

The reason why I’m calling it a tension-free game jam is because for the first time we didn’t care about the output. We just wanted to have fun.
Me(bORAT) and my partner(Dreamstack), two fellow Odias were not looking forward to take part in the jam (until the theme came out). We just had a 2 min talk about some game mechanics and soon realized that it could turn into a pretty good game. Then we started working on the game without caring about the graphics, sound, bugs, etc. because we just wanted to fun. Hence, the output “Kuch Bhi” which literally means “Whatever”, in which there’s no logic. Play it , enjoy it. Hated it ? Give us feedback to improve it.
Finally, don’t forget to press “random button”. Write the output you got in the comment section.
Thank you so much for rating our game. Due to your positive feedbacks I’m thinking about publishing this game in google play store as my first game. Thank You once again.
Looks easy but hard to master.
