Weekend update to my rope-like for the eggplant jan 2023 game jam #2023output
Li'l squiggly guy, this is going to be a rope in a game about spelunking into a well #2023output
#LudumDare52 collab; didn't get as far as I'd hoped, but straight up, it's the first Ludum Dare I've ever finished.
It's a tile-sliding game where the tiles have directions on them that will guide a harvester when the time's up. The plan was to creation tension between having a long route, but "fulfilling recipes" by making the route go through certain sequences of colors.
Only got the tile-sliding and route following done. The gameplay is surprisingly stressful 🥴

Late entry; my #LoveByteTCC Day 12 "Rockin' around the Christmas Tree!" entry (255 bytes; code in replies)
follow up: should I start a blog/substack for this in 2023? I have no critical experience at all but it feels like a useful skill to develop.
Kinda weird how so many indie games roll by without a long-form textual review; there are of course steam reviews, and YouTube commentary, but no write-ups. Even something that has above average awareness like Just King for example. Would love to see some strategic thoughts put to paper, but — nothing.
