Hi, my name is Jean, im from Brazil(Belém city) and the competition will begin at 11:00pm here. It will be my firt ludum dare, well.. i will use flash cs4 and maybe use pixel or flashpunk frameworks, if this 2 fail i will use pure AS3 with a simple game structure that i made before. For graphics i will use gimp with my tablet and for sound the choosen was audacity!!!

That is my “dual notebooks”, my old HP in the rigth and my new VAIO in the left….

And my books! With some alcoohol(maybe the mexican tequila will be util in the next 48 hours)

Weel, after 3:10 hours a dont have a final ideia yet! The first idea that i have was about pirate, then when i saw the various others participants using this ideia, i changed my mind. So i have 3 ideias :

1- Marines turtles-
The player control a little turtle, since the birth until the procriation, visiting other islands and knowing others animals

2-Sufing —
The player will surf in a surf competition through various islands, the gameplay is high inspired in the tony hawks

3- Islands card
The player will make a archpelago using card with efects and quantify of that efect
So, i will sleep, and later i choose one idea, see ya!

weel, im a little late, but that is my map generated, the next step is to make this hexagon be selectionable

Well, im very tired, but my game is almost finished, the grafics arent awesome, but maybe another day i fix it.

So, i finished it , the game is playable, but dont have any sounds anda the graphics are poor, i liked the result, because to a game maked in 48 hours with various brakes do resolve other problems and to learn a new tool (Flixel) it was a good result! Enjoy !

Hi dudes, i do know how answer the comments in my game Arquipelago, so i will write a post to do it, lets go:

I like how the villages grow into cities

I liked it too, in my idea there will be various types of cities, and the type will be influencied by the neighbors tiles.

Neat game, but I can’t find a link to your source.

Sorry dude, but i didnt found a way to make this before the game submission, another day i post it like a regular post.

I see lots of potential with this concept.

Thanks for your comment, maybe it be a iPad game?

F-secure warns about this being a “suspicious program”. Yeah, it’s probably not true, but I’d like to hear something about this before allowing.

Well dude, i dont know what to say, but i will put the source code soon and this “suspicious” will desapear. 😀

Hmm, the time limit kills any strategy you might develop. Also, keeping the time limit running if you misclick is deadly.

Hmm, thanks for your commentary, i will think in a way to resolve this problem. But the time is a important point of tension in the game!

Thanks for all the people that tried my game,  is great to know that my unsleped hours was to a fun objective!

Difficulty would have been nice, like easy would have given me a time limit of like 30 seconds or something. Cool idea though.

You’re rigth! I will put this option in the next version.

It felt like an interesting start, like the setup for a strategy game, but the 10-second timer was too hard to handle in the case of misclicks (at least on the setup I’m currently using to play it). Otherwise, could develop into something neat.

So, i did not thinked in this game like a setup for a bigger game, but who knonw?Maybe a naval war!! Or aerial war!!Where you need to build a island with all the resources that you will use to construct your fleet. Its sound nice! Thanks!
