This week’s Friday Prototype turned out mostly not at all like what I expected it to be, but instead became something far trippier. Still, an interesting aesthetic effect, and I may make proper use of it at some point.
In other news, I contributed a few things to Ben Lehman’s Hourly Game Day project. I didn’t manage the full hourly pace, but it was certainly an interesting exercise.
Lastly, Andreas Illiger has credited Wavespark as an inspiration for his game Tiny Wings, which was pretty cool of him.
(Also, I realized that I never linked to my Ludum Dare 22 game, Embers, which managed to rank 11th (out of 717) in the new Mood category.)
The Friday Prototype reminds me of how so many simple shapes can combine to a really nice effect. Neat!
And congratulations for getting the credit, very nice of him It was about time!
Wow, is Embers great! The dust effects and lighting makes it especially moody. And infinite jumping is also great, there’s a sense of freedom about it.
