More details

Hey Richard, I second the opinion on Ludumdare forum about seeing what others commented on all the entries. i would like also to know the name of the person who…

Question

Am I really allowed to post news about bugfixes and improvements I've made to my entry? It sort of defeats the purpose of a 48 hour contest if people keep adding things…

My entry's source code

The source code included in my final entry is not the final source code. The final source is at: http://ludumdare.com/user/186/SRC_ShrinkingUFOs.zip

doh!

Heh - i guess that my screwup with the testing code seems to have made it so some people couldnt see how it was linked to the topic For those who left the comments…

OS X version

I've recompiled my game to work on OS X. I bought a Mac mini just for that so I hope someone will give it a try and tell me if everything is working OK. Download DMG file (1.3MB)

AI confuddlement

I've noticed I have a lot of comments saying that there is no AI. If this is the case then I have a rather large bug to fix before I continue programming this game.

Speed issues

I've had a couple of comments about Uplighter running very slow, all from people with 3 ghz cpus. Which is weird since it runs smoothly on my computer with 1.8 ghz. I'm…

An answer to some comments

My game sucks ;) - I didn't have enough time to finish it, so don't expect anything more than two monsters in a room. However, I'll try to finish it off this weekend, so…

Problems

apperantly alot of people have had alot of trouble running my game and I've figured out what the probem is... I thought about it for a while and figured out what was…

Compile on linux

Here's a script, kindly written by alar_k, to make Uplighter able to compile on linux. You'll need GLFW, GLFT, FMod & FreeType2.

Bugs!

So, since I missed the cut off to upload by 10 minutes y'all are getting my early release, which really isn't that much different than my later release. Ah well.

Slightly less buggy

I have removed my testing code - so now the universe runs for longer... also i have slightly decoupled the framerate :) a new binary can be found here. Ill continue to…

Updated the Light Warrior

I made some small updates to Light Warrior, download version 1.0.1. Notably the difficulty of level 8 has been lowered, as quite many complained that it is a bit too hard.

Let's do some dmg

As soon as I get ahold of the head honcho I will be uploading an OSX dmg version of my entry as well as a linux makefile & run script.

Confused

I'm totally confused here :/ I already have three comments saying my entry doesn't follow the theme. The red team is fighting to turn on the lights and the blue team is…

A Bug or Not?

For those of you who are having my game crash at launch, have you extracted the zip before running, or are you attempting to run my game from within a compressed folder?…

ouch

Yeah, everyone keeps having trouble with the controls and losing a lot lol. It's because I didnt leave myself enough time to adequately test on more than just my…

EXE Installer

Sorry about doing an EXE installer... I too like all entries to just be zips. The reason I did an installer was because I had tons of time left (this one was so easy for…

Game feedback

Hey, I just started to get reviews/comments for Dayside, thanks judges! There are a few bugs, including one which seems to cause it to freeze. For best performance, run…

Ugh

Watching my score drop... and drop... and drop... :( Next year my name's gonna start with eight z, just to be on the safe side. :)

It's good...but is it art?

There are some who would say I have not followed the theme very well. I would just like to say that I covered the theme by treating it as "negative space". The idea is…

Always the way.

I've just been playing with my entry, wondering why so many people are finding it slow. Much to surprise, I've found that if I _increase_ the canvas resolution from 16…

Oops

So it seems I uploaded a bugged version (once again). Oh well to late. If anyones interested in playing the fixed version of my game - where its possible to complete the…

Post-Mortem

If anyone is interested by those kind of things you can read my Post-Mortem for my game Lightstream48.
