The Wild Choo-Choo West

by bulwar

This was supposed to be a fun train managment game set in Wild West, but we bit off more than we could chew so enjoy what ever this is.

This was made with love, but we just weren't ready for the challange!

We have in plans making an after-jam version of the game with BETTER UI and also gameplay xD

Even though there is no gameplay, I enjoyed the graphics. The antelopes and the parallax are great !
I took me a few tries to find the trading board because it is hidden behind the Train.

(Why is Isaac here XD)

For what it's worth, I think it is awesome that y'all submitted and got *something* across the finish line :) Are you planning on doing a post-jam version with more of the intended experience, or are you moving on to greener pastures?

@koolruz We’ll definitely make an after-jam version, mostly just for ourselves xD. Other biomes are in the works too. But yeah, we definitely should’ve planned the development better. We got a bit too carried away and ended up running out of time for most of the planned mechanics, which turned out to be way more complicated than we expected.

I feel that - Time management is hard lol, especially when you have to coordinate as a team!

Feel free to ping me when you drop the post-jam version, I'd love to see where things go from here! :)

Even though the game is not complete, some aspects of it like the mood and some graphics are very well put together.

Sometimes it's not necessarily about having a fully finished product, but about having tried and experimented. If it is your first Ludum Dare, it is already a great achievement to have published anything for others to see.
