Ludum Dare #30compo
Asteroid Absorption
This was my first Ludum Dare.
I used C++/SFML.
This 'game' isn't really a game the only thing implemented is movement and basic collision detection, The concept of this game was supposed to be you are a sentient asteroid that can absorb other asteroids to grow bigger and then when you are big enough you absorb the earth to win the game, the only thing i managed to implement is movement and camera movement and some basic collision detection.
I did this in about 6 hours, because i wasn't prepared enough for it.
Day 1 i spent with 2 main ideas, a tetris style game and an economy simulator game, however because i haven't programmed with C++ for 5 years and have never used SFML nothing i did on Saturday worked correctly, so on day 2 i spent half of it doing tutorials on C++ and SFML and then after dinner i worked on this simple game.
I don't mind this game didn't plan out because i learned a lot this weekend and i will be more prepared for next time.

I can see you were going for an Osmos kind of vibe.
Fair effort considering you were playing with a few different ideas!
Fair distance from a playable game though.
Only green blob/red blob and no other asteriods
