LudumDare 37: Haunted Room
January 2, 2017
During the ramp up of the LudumDare weekend I didn’t actually pay much attention to the themes I was voting on, or which was popular or not. I didn’t even take the top 20 list and try thinking of different ideas like I’ve done in the past. One Room was announced as the theme and immediately I was at a loss. Like normal everybody Read the rest of this entry »

October Back-and-Forth
October 29, 2016
First, I’ve abandoned the blog for a while and I shall apologize for anyone who actually reads my entries, perhaps only to my future self. An avid reader would know I did #Artember but I don’t think I ever mentioned taking part in Read the rest of this entry »

LudumDare 36: Ancient Robots
September 5, 2016
What a weekend project this one proved to be, I spent most of my Friday looking through the themes to get basic ideas, something I usually avoid. Prior to theme announcement I was assuming the theme would be unfavorable, since I had great ideas for others and so-so ideas for the rest. Ancient Technology was a so-so idea that Read the rest of this entry »

LudumDare 35: Elemental Shift
April 29, 2016
Making a game in 48-hours is a great way to spend a weekend, it is a short window of time but generally enough get something small created and, sometimes, polished. For the past few Ludum Dare events I have been participating with a team, usually a musician and an artist, but for LD34 the team was of 5 people, 2 artists, a musician and a designer, with of course myself being Read the rest of this entry »

Ascending Roots
December 16, 2015
LudumDare is game jam or competition of sorts, though there are no rewards and winning isn’t about placing first. Thousands come together during a single weekend to create nearly 3000 games! I was joined by four other fine developers during the 34th LudumDare event and we together spent 72 hours creating a Read the rest of this entry »

Post-Mortem: Burden (LudumDare #33)
September 1, 2015
Burden follows a woman’s journey through her past, as she is chased by her traumatic and guilt-ridden memories of the plane crash that killed her family. She was the only survivor.
The game was made for LudumDare #33 as a Jam entry. A team of three with less than 72 hours, Jeremy “mmango” Bell doing audio, Daniel “MechanicalLife” Akesson doing visuals and myself doing the programming. Read the rest of this entry »

#1HGJ Entry – Chess
July 4, 2015
Here is a game I made in a single hour for OneHourGameJam the theme, and thus title is: Chess
Working on a game in an hour is a great way to learn the weaknesses about your development pipeline, be it in coding, art or audio. The result is almost always a project that will get thrown away, seriously it took 60 minutes to make, but the experience is certain to teach you something and sharpen game development skills.
The game has nothing to do with the game of chess, or theme. The plan was to have the blue squares become pawns and then have other pieces behind them, but 60 minutes was not enough time.

#1HGJ Entry – Teamwork
June 13, 2015
Here is a game I made in a single hour for OneHourGameJam the theme, and thus title is: Teamwork
Working on a game in an hour is a great way to learn the weaknesses about your development pipeline, be it in coding, art or audio. The result is almost always a project that will get thrown away, seriously it took 60 minutes to make, but the experience is certain to teach you something and sharpen game development skills.
Things learned during this hour:
- Although the template_entity helped a lot, I need to make use of the Entity Behavior System better.
- Fixed a bug with the EntityManager, which is always a benefit.
- I believe a TileSystem, and appropriate entity behaviors could make richer experiences.

Template Project
May 17, 2015
During the last few weeks I’ve been working on a template project to kick off a new project quickly and efficiently. After it took 17 minutes to get the project to blank screen for my first OneHourGameJame entry, it was time to improve the pipeline of starting a fresh project. The adventure started by Read the rest of this entry »
