New ideas

Maybe it’s disappointing, but I didn’t do anything new in EightVenture 2. But the good news are that I kind of make simple light system in my java game engine. Of course it’s not as good as in Game Maker but I think it’s enough for my future projects. Here is some screenshot:

The worst thing is I do not have any good ideas for any game, simple game. I think I’ll take part in next Ludum Dare competition, which is the December 16th-19th. But it’ll a lot depend on the theme. That’s all for now.

Hard week..

It’s exactly a week since last text post, so it’s time to write something. Something about what happend this, last week. I confess, it was really hard time in school, but I hope it’ll be better now. 

You maybe noticed I created two Minecraft fan arts, first was the Mushroom Cow and second was the Enderman which is placing block of grass. It’s really nice feeling when is the painting done and you can upload it. So, you can expect more paintings in future.

And on the game development side, honestly I didn’t do anything. I’m still thinking about game design of EightVenture 2 and believe me, it’s really tough when you’re trying to make up some sort of puzzle and you have absolutely no ideas.

I hope that’s all I wanted to write today.

Thinking day

I’ve been thinking a lot today. Maybe I should really go back to Game Maker and finish the EightVenture 2. Honestly, it’s one of my best projects and it deserves to be finished.

The main problem was game design. I couldn’t made up the “puzzles” which basically make the whole game. If you have any ideas, feel free to let me know. I’ll appreciate it.

And what’s actually going on in the game? I don’t thing it’s something special now, just 2D platformer, with no story yet. I was thinking about something like this, you’ll get up in sort of cave and you have absolutely no idea how did you get there. What now? Sure, only thing you can do is discover the cave and try to get out of there.

This is the basic idea, obviously not final story. That’s all I think.

Near future

Today I’m going to write something about that what will I do in near future. I think there are two ways what I can do. Well I can make Minecraft mods which is not bad but I don’t want do this forever..

The next possible way is that I’ll make my own game which I like much more than modding other game. Sadly, this is harder than modding. I have simple Java based game engine, so I’m thinking about creating some simple game, something like Space Invaders or Pac-Man.

That’s all today.
