Well, I was rather disappointed with the theme, but I managed to get a game going. It’s called “Invasion of the Blobs”. Earth is taken by “surprise” when a mass of “weird” blobs have been spotted by a high-range space satellite orbiting Earth, and “unexpectedly” a top-secret spaceship fighter is deployed to take them out.
Screenshot is below. Enjoy!

This is my final release of “Invasion of the Blobs”. I’m not completely happy with it, but oh well… there’s not many changes to the game, but a windows binary is now available. Have fun playing!

I made a few more updates to my game, so this is the real final release. Enjoy!
The story of “Invasion of the Blobs”:
A satellite orbiting Earth detects a mass of weird lifeforms rapidly heading towards the sun, that seem to collect around a massive green lifeform. Alarmed, and taken completely by surprise, Earth deploys a top-secret spacecraft to destroy weird mass of blobs, and the strange lifeform they collect around.

Woot! I’ve made some good progress on my game. Its a 2D platformer (how inventive, eh?). Unfortunately, its really hard not inserting all my ideas in, since the theme is “Minimalist”. Anyway here’s a screenie of my prog:
And believe it or not, everything you see on there is in one file! Now that’s minimal 😉
Well, I guess I finished my entry, though I might add some more levels tomorrow. Gonna go chill out and play my DS now… Cheers 😀

Windows: (I’ll upload a binary later, hopefully)
Okay, this time I really think I’m done. I added an intro and an outro, fixed some bugs, and changed the way scoring works, and tweaked gameplay a little bit. I also added a windows executable. Cheers! 😀

So I’m going for Retro DOS epicness! Commander Keen vs. Captain Comic! I’ve never actually played Captain Comic, but Commander Keen is one of my favorite game sagas, and I’ve always wanted to make a fan-game of him.
The game is going to be an RPG (hopefully). You’ll explore a planet (Mars, I guess?) in search of Captain Comic, who has raised the Vorticons in revolt against Keen. (yes its lame, and I might change that later on) When you touch an enemy, it will go into a battle mode like Mario & Luigi (GBA and DS) and Paper Mario (GC).
I started drawing the graphics last night, and I’ve got most of the “overworld” graphics done. Here’s a screenie of my progress:
And yes, everything is collidable and there’s a camera that works 
I’m using my Flibber game engine to make it.
Anyway, I’ll see ya all around. Good luck with your games

Yes, I dropped out because:
Hopefully I’ll stay more focused next LD Looking forward to playing ya’ll’s games. Who knows… maybe I’ll make a game in 30 minutes real quick?

OK so I made a game in 60 minutes. Its uber easy and uber short. Beat Frogger as Galaga! Use the arrows to move and space to shoot.

Yeah it’s sort of a play-off of Signs. The game’s like a really simple 2d FPS. I’m not gonna be working a whole lot on it, but here’s a screenie of it.
Cheers!
OK so like we got Time Capsule, which is our router now. Of course my WiFi Adapter won’t work with it, so I’m pretty much screwed ATM.
Hopefully I’ll be getting a 50ft long cord to connect into the router and be running Ubuntu pretty soon, but until then I won’t be online very much at all
Sorry I didn’t post my MiniLD #2 entry… no way to upload it Congrats to the people that finished! I’d play their entries if I could download them…
Hopefully I’ll see you all in the near future…
Cheerio!
Yoyo yo all. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to do this LD since I still have no internet. *sigh*
Yup! I got an ethernet cable today so I’m gonna jump into the competition! Yay!
Soz I decided to do mrfun’s strongai. It’s one of my favorite LudumDare entries, and well, galcon would take too long to make 😉
Wish me luck!
Phew, got it finished 😛
