Ludum Dare and GMC Jam results

The judging for Ludum Dare and GMC Jam ended recently. I got 29th place in the GMC Jam, in which I entered A Dying Curiosity. For the Ludum Dare, which I made Lost for, I got the following results:

So yeah. I'll finish Descension soon, I promise!

A Dying Curiosity

So the GMC Jam ended yesterday, and I made a game for it called A Dying Curiosity. You can download it HERE. It's about a tree. I was unable to implement all things I wanted to, but I think it's still worth a play.

For those of wondering about the title, it's from a haiku I wrote for school. It was:

As she watched with her

Dying curiosity

Snow drifted gently

Ludum Dare Defeated.

So I did end up making a game for the Ludum Dare this weekend, called Lost. You can see its entry page HERE or download it HERE. It's a short hyperpixelated game where you explore a tiny world. Overall, I'm satisfied with it, but it seems like it's missing something.

Tiny World

Remember how in the last post I said I'd participate in the Ludum Dare unless the theme sucked? Well, the theme sucks. I still might make something for it, but probably not.

Ludum Dare...

...is coming! So yeah, it's about five hours away as I type this, and I TOTALLY GOING TO PARTICIPATE!
Unless the theme sucks and/or a power outage occurs.

Cruise!

I'm going on vacation! So I won't be able to work on my two projects(Player Two Start and Descension).

So yeah. In the meantime, you can look at these screenshots.

Player Two Start!

This would be a screenshot of the game I'm currently working on. I am naming it "Player Two Start" because previous playthroughs will have a permanent effect on the game's environment.

Please note that the green thing with the eyes is not the player-character. That's just a temp art for a bush.

Also, something that may or may not be a deharmonized sequel

New game!

So when I saw THIS GAME, I thought to myself "Wow, what a brilliant game!" I played it, then suddenly, I had the world's most brilliant idea.

I present to you, the one-pixel game:

Yes, this is a game consisting of ONLY ONE PIXEL! This is a screenshot that has been scaled up 100x, but I assure you that in the game it will be actual size.

Anyway, I expect it to be finished in about 2015, and until then, I won't make any other games. So yeah.

Also, I found out that today is April Fools' Day. Maybe I should post some sort of joke today.

BLOBQUEST

So remember how I said I was working on DESCENSION? Well, I still am. I just got a bit distracted when I saw the Mini Ludum Dare. Anyway, the theme was "Doodles", and the idea was to make a doodle and base a game around it.
This was my doodle (Which I drew in 3 minutes):

So I made a game based on it, and this was how it turned out:

It didn't really come out the way I envisioned. The instant I uploaded it, I realized there were a million things that I should have changed about it. For instance, I didn't add any music, which could have made the game a lot better. Also, I'm not really happy about the graphics

.

But it has many positives. The ability to instantly upgrade your stats is interesting. Another thing I like about it is that you really need to think about your strategy in order to beat this.

Maybe I'm overthinking this. Either way, you can download it HERE. 

Back to work!

So I'm still working on DESCENSION. I haven't been working on it as much as I should have been lately, but I'm back to working on it.

In other news, I figured out how to make different pages on my blog. So I made a page for my games.
