Lol ya I get you. It sucks having to make due with shitty programmer art. But anyways happy to have ya on the site and we look forward to seeing what you come up with!
I’m have a project that I’ll try to release tonight for the fortnight game jam.
Outside of that I’m working on a small town management style game. Might be more of a party management style game.
The basic idea is you are the leader of a village and send out adventurers to get supplies in the form of food items. then there will be a few buildings and shops you can level up with the food you get, leading to weight gain. Then you can augment the party with gear and training from the various buildings in town.
That’s the basic idea and it is no where near completion.
I’ll let the game jam project speak for itself on it’s own post. Assuming I get it up soon.
I was trying to think of the bet way to use weight gain and fat as a game mechanic.
It didn’t take much to make a cookie clicker into a weight gain food based game. Also it was quick to code and I didn’t have a lot of time to get my entry in.
I was kinda inspired by darkest dungeon for the other game. (if it ever gets worked on)
Now that the game jam is over and I have some time I’m going to polish the cookie clicker. Someone reported they were unable to play and I want to try to fix that. Also I want to add in the ability to use your own character art in place of the silly circle.
After that I’ll start coding the back end for party management style game.
I suppose the plan is to make it in this sorta order:
-basic back end work (character properties, town properties)
-screens (menus, town screen, inventory, stats, game play screen)
-gameplay (don’t have a plan for this yet)
-art (need help here, or you all get more ellipses for character art)
-polish
