It took me much much more longer than expected, but I finally finished the A Light in the Dark demo! You can play it here. Based on the feedback to this demo I’ll decide whether I keep on working on this idea or not, so any feedback is appreciated!
So as it usually happens at the end of an academic semester, I disappear… but now I’m back! And I’m glad to be here. I have lots of intersting plans lined up for the near future, so that’s what I’m going to talk about now.
Just as the title says! I’m going to keep the main devlog on TIGSource since it’s a bit more exciting to post it where you feel like people will see it, but I’ll be making posts here too whenever there’s something significant to show. For now though, here’s an excerpt from my first post there explaing what the project is about:
Hey everyone! Here’s the game I made for the Kenney Jam 2017, with the theme “It’s a feature, not a bug!”. To be honest… I didn’t like the theme, but it’s probably just me being grumpy because I couldn’t come up with any good idea that was artsy or had good mechanics.
I had fun making it though! And that’s the spirit I aim for when participating in a jam. You can get the project code over at Github (surprisingly decent/readable until the final stretch) and play the game here!
So, I finished a simple demo for the Ruins of Time remake! You can play it over here.
This project was mostly to experiment some techincal stuff (source control and a style guide) and exercise my “gamedev muscles”. I achieved that, so I’ll be leaving it as is, and will move on to other new (and hopefully more interesting!) ideas. If you’re interested in checking it out though, the project can be found on Github.
Here’s some gameplay of the game I developed at the game jam I participated last weekend! You can read more about that here.
Last weekend, I participated in a special game jam here in Chile organized by LA.PCERA. Why special? Besides being a competition with a $1000 USD prize, the jam was about making games for scientific divulgation, a really respectable goal. I just went for the fun of the jam, especially since this time I was participating with friends (I usually go solo and join a team on site) and I never really thought about the prize… until I won! Totally unexpected…
