Upriver Flow (unfinished)
This game is from the old Ludum Dare platform. You can try viewing the original page on Web Archive

Unfortunately, it's unfinished: Dialogue, mechanics... most everything?
Press z to select, x to deselect (only speeds up scene text at the moment).
It's my first attempt at any competition like this, and I haven't really made a game in a long time.
I used paperjs for rendering and coffeescript to js for the programming.
There's a working menu selection (though all functions aside from "new" are not available) and dialogue / scene system, but I didn't get around to doing the mechanics in time, and if you go over the scene and into what would have been the game screen, you can see that the placement of water (if you press space) is still off.
I think I've learned a few lessons - to jump straight to making the core of the game, familiarize myself with tools beforehand, and to not make placeholder objects - especially dialogue.
Still, it was a fun experience! I'll try again next time.
