At the moment, we’ve got two programmers, one audio composer, and one artist.
We feel that if we can complement our current team with another good artist, we’ll have the ideal composition to cover everything this game jam will throw at us.
No matter the theme, we are going to create a 2D pixel art game. Both programmers have extensive experience both in and outside of Godot (our preferred engine), and the audio composer has published a game themselves.
We really do like to tackle the game jam themes as a team and crowdsource ideas/features/mechanics with the intention of having everyone on board with the plan.
I enjoyed listening to the Themed Horror Jam album and others. It’s great that you have a range of styles and themes. I don’t want to hold you up; however, we currently have a sound engineer involved in this project.
Do you also have samples of sound effects?
Our basic checklist
main actions of the playable character (movement, jumping, taking damage, attacking)
any potential pickup items/interactable objects
sound effect for interacting with menu buttons/UI elements
Experienced Artist/Programmer duo looking to cover gaps in our combined skillset. We are versed in 2D game development with pixel graphics. We have had both successfully executed game jams and ones that just ended up being learning moments.
We’d like to compose a well-rounded team before the release of the theme of the game jam. Our first goal is to brainstorm an idea for the game and tentatively plan out features. Later, turning the vision into reality.
We’re interested in finding a dedicated audio engineer for the team’s composition. Right now, we have strong programming, artistic, and game design skills.
We are a democracy and like to design the original game concept together as our first step into any given game jam. After all, game jams are all about having fun and exploring new ideas.
I’m circling back and saw your asset packs! Well done friend, glad to see you pushing through and updating them over time. You really have started fleshing this out
Came across my Itch “relevant to me” game page. Not disappointed! Good art style, I appreciate that it isn’t “turn-based” sequences… things still move in real-time regardless of player input. Some puzzles were tricky. Made it to the golems facing each other.
Adding to my collection to keep track of the progress. Well done!
Oh I know! I was on the fence about controller support. Is the xbox controller the standard controller for PC these days? (Been using the steam controller but I feel this one isn’t used much. Its a total pain to implement as well)
The event was a rager! Excellent music selection. I saw one of the woman in the corner talking about exotics foods by herself and thought to myself… Me too… Me too. LOL.
Perhaps! I think I speak for the entire time, we really enjoyed ourselves and consider this game to be a massive success. Check out team “portfolio” in the games description. Feel free to reach out to everyone involved directly.
I was just about to go to bed for the night, but then I say your cover image. Mouth watering… Haha
Fun bouncy music. (Know I have no experience making audio when I say this lol)
Not sure if its my laptop and browser setup, but it seemed like the when I went into the spell to update it (during the combat) it never actually updated. Example: I had four explosives, but only the original one was procing.
A legit full game. Cute little animations sprinkled throughout in a tasteful way. (Speaker box moving, jumping, resets)
The only critique I could even provide on a game this polished was there was a single typo I says “Bottum” and maybe add a subtle background track because the game is a bit longer?
A+ game though, super solid. I have it paused because I want to come back and finish it later.
I like the tree design in the background, some branches almost look like human body parts. The tone you were going for, I think you nailed it with the audio.
Little tricky to get the wall jumping mechanic locked down but I did end of escaping Death!
