Week of Awesome V: Post-Mortem

Greetings and salutations!

 

The competition is over, and the results are in. I came in thirteenth out of twenty--not a result that I'm happy with.

 

So, what went right, and what went wrong?

 

What went right:

- Panda3D

Once again, I'm overall rather happy with …

Week of Awesome V: Day 6: The Tower of Chains

Greetings and salutations!

This is, for me, the final day of the jam; thus, what I've completed today is intended to be my final submission...

First, once again, a screenshot showing some of that final submission:

So, what does that submission include?

First of all, I'm not t…

Week of Awesome V: Day 5: A Little Magic

Greetings and salutations!

Today was pretty productive, I do feel! Once again, I didn't get done quite as much as I might have liked, but nevertheless feel that I got a fair bit done.

First of all, a screenshot, showing the main menu (and the title that I've selected for the game):

Week of Awesome V: Day 4: Strange Crystals

Greetings and salutations!

Today was fairly productive, I feel! To start with, some screenshots showing the current state of the game:

    The three powerups thus far implemented--from left to right, I believe: A "spread-fire" weapon, health, and a "charging blast" weapon.

Week of Awesome V: Day 3: Links of Iron

Greetings and salutations!

Today was a fairly productive day, I think--although I'm starting to feel a little behind my preferred schedule. The end of the week is creeping closer...

As to a screenshot, have a GIF showing the new chains in action (albeit with some cuts; the process is rat…

Week of Awesome V: Day 2: Strange Creatures

Greetings and salutations!

Day two of the fifth Week of Awesome has concluded for me! It's been a fairly productive day for me, I think--although I'll confess that I didn't manage to finish quite everything that I had wanted to.

First, however, a screenshot showing some of the game's cur…

Week of Awesome V: Day 1: Chains and Invaders

Greetings and salutations!

Once again, the "Week of Awesome" has come around, and once again I mean to enter!

The themes for this year are, I believe: "Chain Reaction", "Assassination", "Castles", and "Alien Invasion".

I'll confess that these themes gave me some trouble: it took me s…

WoAIII: Death and the Boss Monster
Day 5 draws to a close. The deadline is near (more so because I don't intend on working on Sunday, a possible all-nighter notwithstanding).

I have a new prototype: Powerthief v0.2

(I won't post a new screenshot today because the game is visually much the same as it was yesterday--the changes are prim…

WoAIII: Prototype!
It's... It's day 3, right? Right...?

*ahem*

At long last I have a prototype available! The art is placeholder (although some might end up in the final product due to time constraints), the gameplay is likely rather unbalanced, the enemies are simple, there's little feedback on hits, the thematic ele…
