This has been my second LD attempt and my second completed game!
Well More went wrong than went right in terms of my game, but the amount of fun i had and things i learned trumps that.
Pocket Strife Entry
Hello everyone. This was a fantastic Ludum Dare for me and I wanted to share a postmortem for my game, NanoBot Adventures. All in all, this was a pretty good game jam for me.
Introduction Finally, relaxation! Our two-man team (Ryan and Jon) buckled down over the 72 hours to churn out this Unity powered scandalous adventure game. However, it…
Well. First Ludum Dare. What an experience! I went into it not knowing exactly what to expect, and I’m still not exactly sure what happened.
So, thanks to a caffeine, bacon, and sugar fueled event that I happened to be taking part in (the Nokia Lumia Hackathon held in Johannesburg over the same weekend of…
Back again with my first post mortem !
Time to wrap it up with a little summary of my weekend and my entry; Lost Oxide. I’ll give ya’ll a little feel of the whole development process below.
After our first Ludum Dare, we are really satisfied with the feeling. It was a great experience and we enjoyed (in some weird ways) developing under a great time pressure.
Now that the Ludum Dare competition is complete and my entry has been submitted for voting, it’s time to look back on what worked & what didn’t.
Well, it’s been a wild ride, but I’m happy to present you my LD23 entry:
So my Big Atoms was released on time and I like it. Here’s its post mortem.
At 2am local time #LD23 started, we were sleeping :D. However we woke up at 6.30am to the news that Tiny World was the theme. After 2 and a half hours we had an idea of…
Buggy, Tank and missile launcher – How it started
Hello,
My entry tr-3012 is primarily a musical instrument, a drum machine with five independent looping triggers identified by robots.
Few, that one hell of a weekend. Just an hour before the start of LD #23 I decided to participate, no regrets! This was my second time and my first “success”.
A very short Postmortem about my Compo entry: Ant, Bee, Cow, Pig and Spider BOSS. http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-23/?action=preview&uid=2465.
Wow!! This was my first Ludum Dare and it was quite challenging!
So this was LD 23. You can play my entry here: The Island of Dare
I’m still stunned that i was actually able to complete LD23, I am satisfied about my game, but there were some flaws i will have to point out. The game I created was a…
I so wanted to do this LD, but I had lots of real-life stuff on this weekend. I still tried, and got about what I expected for the limited time I could spend. Seeing…
Time to blurt a bit about my experiences during the recent LD48 event!
I finished my game for the compo yesterday. It’s called “Stampede at Crooked Thorax Ranch”. I had a really great time making it! I’d love to get some feedback and votes on it here!
Wow, what a weekend. This was my first Ludum Dare, and I can certainly tell you that I was not prepared. Deciding to do the LD48 in the spur of the moment, with about…
This was my first LD and pretty well the first game I’ve ever made from the ground up. I finished with about 3 hours left and I was very impressed with the results! :D
First of all, if you haven’t already, go play Subatomica
My first Ludum Dare was neither a success or a failure. I managed to “finish” the game enough to submit it in time, but it lacks so many of the things I drew up at the…
Well, that weekend was a crazy 48 hours. A lot of it is a blur (Im going to enjoy watching my own timelapse since I cant remember 75% of everything I went though)
Had some requests for a post-mortem, so ..uhm.. okay I guess.
I’ve known about Ludum Dare for a few years now, but every time it came around I would end up having too much to do in real life to participate. This time I was finally…
Tinyvilizationis a game where you plan a strategy to conquer a new tiny world. Unfortunatly you are not alone and an other settler will try to build cities over the…
The Deserted : http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-23/?action=preview&uid=11242
After some extended sleep and being tired for the rest of the day I think I’m able to come up with a post-mortem.
My game is here: Robots Are Red, Violets Are Blue
Sim Hamlet My aim this time was to work on my drawing skills. So I decided to make a graphical game for LD#23, based loosely on an old favourite game of mine, “The…
I’m sorry for writing so much on the last post, I was in dire need of sleep but wanted to put it all out before I went to bed. Also, if you haven’t checked out my entry,…
Thought i’d write the post mortem while everything is fresh. =)
Well, we finished. Barely. With 5 minutes to go I was making a build and realized there was no game icon so I quickly let my artist know, she tossed one in the dropbox,…
This was my first Game jam and well, it was tough. I was carefull to sleep at least 8h per night to keep maximum efficiency but still… Quite painful to have a 48 hours…
