I’m in. First time making game in about two years. Going for the compo for that sweet 48 hour antisocial caffeine rush.
I haven’t decided on my tools yet, will probably do so after I think of a game idea, but I’m considering giving Pico-8 a try.

Good luck to everyone!

Featuring godawful lovely art.

I spent the last week playing An Untitled Story so you can probably guess where the inspiration for the art came from.

Gameplay gifs as soon as all the placeholder rectangles are gone.

Submitted the final bugfix 2 minutes before the submission hour ended.
For my first Ludum Dare, I think it’s ok. The gameplay is complete and the game is pretty fun (and hard), but I couldn’t get all the graphics and sounds I wanted into the game.
I’ll release a post-compo version soon.
Good night, and good luck to everyone still working on the jam.

After a few days of playing and rating games I’m ready to let this LD go. I usually dislike when nobodies (i.e. me) write super boring “I spent more time writing this than working on my compo game” post-mortems, so instead have poorly optimized .gifs showing cryptic gameplay and horrible bugs I can’t figure out, and a list of the tools I ended up using, for archival purposes:

(Link in case the gifs piqued your curiosity http://ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-34/?action=preview&uid=61928)

Tools used for My Dino:
♦ LÖVE
♦ Atom with the love-ide package (Anyone using LÖVE should give it a try, it’s pretty good)
♦ Paint.net
♦ Renoise

Good luck to everyone, and Merry Christmas!
