I made a game for #ludumdare #ldjam51 with my good friend @0

It's called Timeslime. I think it turned out pretty well.

Here's the gamejam entry:

It's playable in the browser (using a keyboard) here: https://asbjornolling.gitlab.io/timeslime

Here's our finished game for #ldjam51 https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/51/10-second-pairer

This one taught me a lot about game jam scope stuff: It's not only about the complexity of the gameplay, having an idea that requires tons of textures and music makes the game even more difficult to finish

Really feeling the importance of making a game that is fun from the early prototype stages onwards during #ldjam51.

The last two games we made had that quality, which made them great to work on.
The current one doesn't because it needs a ton of stuff to be in place for it to be playable, which slows progress down a lot :/

I'm done for today.

Someone really should've warned me that making a game about matching dating profiles would include drawing tons of profile pictures .-.

I haven't written a single line of code today but I'm still really drained from all the asset work I did.

Good thing the main gameplay loop is relatively simple, so I can spend the rest of the jam making even more profiles and building an adaptive music system.

People who use online dating: what are some funny dating profile tropes?

We're building a semi-satirical game about being a matching algorithm for #ldjam51 and I need some ideas for more profiles.
