Axolotl Pop!
[post-mortem] Evolvin Gen
So here is my first port-mortem, covering an entry that I made for Ludum Dare 24 compo “Evolution”. The entry is not other but Evolvin Gen. If you don’t know, Evolvin…
Rise of the Meebas Dev Diary
I thought I’d get into the spirit of Ludum Dare and write about my entry, Rise of the Meebas. This is actually more of a rough development diary, peppered with some…
Pincers post-mortem
First of all, the end product :)
And Then There Was Pong (and then breakout, and then space invaders, and then another game)
So I finally got around to writing one of these post-mortem/compo whatchamacallits and, looking back in a retrospective light, I probably should have chose a slightly…
Red Planet, a Post Mortem
Ludum Dare 24 was a blast, here’s a look and what went right/wrong along the way for Red Planet.

Before now, I had never participated in Ludum Dare despite hearing so many good things about it, especially over the years I have been following Notch’s development of…
Jump’o’lution PostMortem
So it seems to be the time to write my post mortem. We did the game as a team of 3 pepole. As always the workload at my job peaked in the weeks before LD. So i had no…
Infected Cell – Post Mortem
Infected Cell is my first LD, i have previously entered 2 MLDs, and have gathered it is expected to do a Post Mortem. The game is a basic Shoot em’ Up, in which you play…
How it went: Bear Selection
This is in all regards a post-mortem just with a different name. A post mortem implies that the game is dead, but from the comments I’ve got the game has potential and…
Post ortum
I don’t like the term “post mortem”. It means “after death”, but actually I perceive it more as birth than death when you finish a new game. So I write “post ortum”, for…
15 min Post-Mortem “Paprika Blue”
Eating my bagel sandwich on break at the cafe I wash dishes at. Got 15 mins.
Post Mortem
I really understand the advice I’ve heard before of figuring out what you want to do before hand, and tailoring it to the theme once its announced. I still had no work…
Ludum Dare 24 Postmortem
Ludum Dare 24 started nearly a week ago, enough time to think it through and write up the postmortem for “Literally: Earth Shaping”. This was my second LD and overall I…
Influenza – Post mortem
I spent the first four hours of Saturday coming up with an idea for Evolution. It was a tricky theme, but eventually I settled on something similar to a simplified…
PostMortem – Robot Panic
If you haven’t yet played Robot Panic, you can find it here.
Collect Postmortem
Hey all,
Probes of fury post mortem
So i completed my first ludum dare and i learned a lot. trough my “failure” so here are the lessons i learned in hope that i an whomever reads this will not repeat them.
Human Evolution – Time to Post Mortem
Hello to all, I’m really happy to be here and to have participated in this nice event, but most of all I am very pleased to have successfully completed something that…
The Lost Laboratory – Post-Mortem
So ludum dare 24 is over and The Lost Laboratory finished. It’s time for a retrospective.

What I had in mind
The Post Mortem of The life of Cat
Hi everyone,
Those Stupid Aliens, with Postmortem
My Ludum Dare Jam entry is Those Stupid Aliens. It’s a top-down space shooter.
The Last Slime – Gameplay Vid & Postmortem
Coding – In past entries I spent far too much time and energy trying to maintain good coding practices. That was completely thrown out the window this time around, and,…
Moore’s Game – compo Postmortem
This was my first Ludum Dare and I made a game called “Moore’s Game“. It’s basically a journey through the evolution of video games – starting with Tic Tac Toe on a…
Post Mortem: DGP: Space lion
(Written by Hagay, the graphics guy)
Hair whippin’ and a postmortem too
First off, I think that you should all be congratulated for generally being awesome. Reasons for you being awesome include the fact that you just made a better game in…
Pursuit of True Self, Post Mortem
It’s my first time LD48, I learned a lot and here is my post mortem.
The Joining – 3 Day MMO Postmortem
So, for our first Ludum Dare ever me and Regus made The Joining, a centrally hosted 2D shooter MMO. Against all expectations, including my own, we made a relatively…
Silent Game of Death, Post Mortem
Hi all, this is the post mortem for my Ludum Dare 24 entry called “Silent Game of Death”.
SURVIVE – Post Mortem
This was my first Ludum Dare, and I really enjoyed it! From what I read, it’s traditional to do a little write up of what happens, so here is mine for SURVIVE:
Mutating Scales – Post mortem
My first ludum dare, and subsequently my first LD post mortem.
EVOLVES! Post Mortem
The night before the theme was announced I was looking at the themes that were up for vote. What I should have done was come up with an idea for each theme. Or at least…
Wormelution – Post Mortem
Alright, time to do a little blog thingy about things that worked well and things that worked bad.
[0-EVO] a brief post mortem
Last week end was my first participation to the ludum dare. I’ve been considering to participate for a few years now but I had never had the ‘nerve’ to take the last…
Post Mortem – Primordial Pool
Well everyone else is, so I thought I should do a quick post-mortem of my game since I didn’t do any blogging during the compo!
