Post Mortem on Raven Knight Geist (LD45)
I've never did a proper post mortem before, so apologies if I'm misusing the term. I wanted to properly gather my thoughts about my game, and what I learned while working on it:
kinda of post-mortem?
I wasnt actually expecting to spend almost the whole duration of the Jam with my team, but guess what? We actually did. We worked, we ate and we slept in the same house.…

With Ludum Dare 44 winding down, it's time to reflect on how things went for me. Firstly, as always, a massive "Thank you!" to everyone who's played 15 Minutes to Live,…
"Soul Builder" behind the scenes
Because the game is about waiting for workers to generate resources so you can build structures, it resembles an idle game, but I wanted to keep the experience snappy…
