Struggling to find games to play? It seems unlikely. But if you are interested in a strategic, turn-based space sim, apparently in the vein of Oregon Trail, check out my game anyways. https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/46/flight-of-the-cepheus

So I don't quite feel like spending my entire weekend right now making a game. I was quite honestly planning on relaxing, but fun got in the way. The plan now is to scope small this time around and get this thing knocked out by Saturday night, submit Compo, and I get a full free Sunday. Can't imagine that plan going awry.

Images so far:

Level 1, and Level 2.

I suspect my use of the theme won't be the most creative, but this did give me an excuse to make a game I've been interested in, but with a neat twist.

TODO: SFX, Music, Scoring, Pickups, Stage 3, and a menu.

I decided I wanted a free Sunday, so I planned on knocking this compo out by Saturday night. Technically its a little Sunday for me now, but its close enough for me. I call it a great success. Hope yall are having success as well.

Game is pretty simple, and I gave up on music, but the SFX are nice, and I think its actually fun. Might have ripped off much of the idea from an app I used to have called "Mr. Oops" but it isn't on the store anymore :(

Its called Shimash, a sort of pun on the Chinese character 十, which means 10, and the word "smash". I guess it'd be pronounced "Shmash". I stuck to 8 colors for the whole game, which I think gives it a nice cohesive look. Not an artist.

Do you want to play a game that others are calling "good job", "effective", and "sheesh"?

Is that a good sheesh? A bad one? Only one way to find out.

Look no further, have I got the game for you.

It's my game. Its on HTML 5. You should play my game.

(I'll play yours too)
