Ludum Dare
Posted: Sun Dec 18, 2011 8:35 pm
So the last 2 days was Ludum Dare 22. For those that don't know Ludum Dare is a huge contest run every 3 months where people worldwide try to make a game completely from scratch in 48 hours using whatever tools they want, with the requirement that the game must be relevant to some theme that is chosen by voting.
This time the theme was Alone, which doesn't really inspire any game ideas. So I was instead inspired by the theme Kittens which made it to the last round of voting but lost.
I opted for a physics-centered platformer made with Flash... but ended up running out of time to create any interesting levels or things like that. Oh well, hopefully I'll find time to finish it in the next while and then it'll be a big hit
(ok maybe not)
