Gee, it sure is boring around here My boy. This peace is what all warriors strive for. I just wonder what Ganon is up to. Your majesty. Ganon and his minions have seized the islands of Koridai Hmm... How can we help? It is written: only Link can defeat Ganon. Great! I'll grab my stuff! There is no time; your sword is enough. How about a kiss... For luck? You've got to be kidding. Squadila! [squa.dɪ.la] We're off! Wow! What are all those heads? These are the faces of evil. You must conquer each. I guess I better get going. Here! ...Is the map. Where do you wish to go?
My basic idea was to add some interesting enemy types to Super Mario Bros. As you can see, all I was able to replicate was the jump-on-head mechanic; the fish enemy was my take on an interesting, yet simple enemy design. Really glad you enjoyed playing it! Thanks for the feedback :)
I am going to keep this brief but as I was reading your jam description I noticed you set an over all theme, or what seemed to be one, revolving around "...to utilize the RNG of the theme to make the wackiest, coolest, most bodacious game you've ever played (or just something fun)! The goals of the Krass N.G. Jam are to help get the ball rolling on a game idea that you've had (or never knew you had) or a chance for you to start and finish a game for that little extra push of excitement for your own game!.." I interpreted this as "your theme is basically make something that uses an RNG seed but is super wacky and weird". Another thing was the stated rule of "Any premade assets are allowed, get creative!" gave me the idea that the theme wouldn't be super specific.
Because of this I decided upon a game with a concept that I really like. My QUESTION is this: how specific will the themes be that they might COMPLETELY disrupt my vision if it doesn't fit the already given information I have stated?
Also yes I am aware that the game jam hasn't started yet so this might technically be cheating but I don't think it is because this jam seems pretty chill ._.
As it gets closer to the submission deadline (only a month and a half away ), I would like to see how everyone is progressing. Personally I would like to disclose as little information as possible, even though I have a 4 month old version of my game on my profile. I have destroyed many bugs and am fixing to attempt to code my first boss. I will soon be done with what I will call a "beta" version of this game as I plan on doing a lot more with it and at the pace I am going it might take another 6 or 7 months to complete. However, that doesn't mean my game is super bad and trashy. If you want to see a really bad game play the first version of it on my page (Windows OS only, sorry :C). I recently fixed enough bugs where I almost had fun playing it (yay :D).
When exporting the game, change the file type to "single run time executable" so you immediately start the game and you don't have to install it every time you want to play it.
My game still needs more waves, enemies, and a shop system. In my defense it wasn't meant for this jam and the jam I was making it for was supposed to go on till November but canceled. :P
I was going to use physics for my game, but I didn't realize how different the coding was and the fact that I could just spend more time making collisions instead of messing with physics, so I switched the movement code for the second time out of 5 times. :P
I just got here so my game might not be polished but should have some decent gameplay. Basically the game jam I was going to enter it in got canceled so I went searching for others. I will be posting imgur snapshots of it if you don't mind ;D.
