Ludum Dare #22: Alone In Space...
The weekend of December 17th was Ludum Dare #22, the theme was Alone. My entry was Alone In Space... a game about being stuck in space, separated from your convoy with rouge Artificial Intelligence after you. Ludum Dare gave me a chance to try a few new features out that I am adding to Untitled. I used a plugin that allows you to map the controls to a key of your choosing, or even to a GamePad/Joystick. I also did a fast and dirty version of the Online High Score board. Click the image bellow for more information about my Ludum Dare entry, and to try it:
New Websites
I have revamped the All Around Games website to reflect current information, and offer some insight into how I work. You can take a look here.
I have also created a website for Untitled, that will launch with Beta 3. It will contain helpful information about the game, and be the easiest place to view the Leaderboards.
Beta 3
Beta 3 is coming along nicely, it will include the configurable controls, Leaderboards, new pickup particles, and several small changes. I hope to release it early next week, if I can stop adding and changing features. To accommodate the new configurable controls the main menu was redesigned.
I posted an update to the progress on the All Around Games website, then go to the blog page to view it.
Basically the leaderboards is taking longer to implement correctly than I initially thought it would.
