#ld45

I made a puzzle platformer in 48 hours this weekend for Ludum Dare. 

It’s called No Body’s Problem

I helped co-develop a game for LD45 this year, in charge of art and audio. Fun project if a bit taxing at times. Breaks and rest are very important.

The theme this year was start with nothing. Very nicely broad. A few of us spent some time brainstorming and eventually cooked up some idea where you’re thrown right into the fire and have no idea what you’re supposed to be doing. It came together nicely. My buddy Celdur was in charge of programming and keeping things moving forward, giving me long lists of requests frequently. It was interesting but we managed to reasonably complete a thing. Not perfect but certainly a working game.

'Revelator' (LD45) Impressions: Fling Balls to Reveal That Which is Hidden

Explode Ball! Multi-Ball! Grav-Ball! Fling the ball! Paint the screen! Oh right, suppose some sort of introduction to Revelator is in order, even though it is actually quite simple. You're in control of that tiny ball, able to fling and send it flying, direction and speed decided upon by you. As it travels across the screen, should the ball pass an area hiding something, this shall immediately be revealed. Like I said, simple, and yet... very enjoyable.
