the theme is COOKING! there may seem like limitations to that theme, but i want you to bend those limitations like a stick of warm playdough. try to make a really unique game!


remember! this is supposed to be laid back and fun! don't stress out too much about errors! you have a whole week to make as many tiny games, large games, and even some games that jump on rocks.


have fun!

starts in like a half hour, guys!!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAND
START

I'm starting on something... I got an idea...

if anybody wants to make a sweet music track you can get a sneak preview of my game and a credit and all that.

Wow I fuckin worked on this game all day... it's pretty good I think. It's small and probably not too much fun, but bwiz I'm glad you did these, I haven't made any games in such a long time this was just what I needed. I'll probably finish it up tomorrow, but hopefully by tomorrow night I'll have my entry in. I don't wanna work on it too long or I'll end up tweaking it forever and breaking it. I'll provide the source if anyone wants it, it's XNA 4.0.

I was busy today but I'll be finishing up my entry soon...

What if you had a glass of Chianti to get your tongue loose?

i wanted to make something last jam but... I couldn't slam with the rest but maybe I can pull this off?

a couple characters from said jam... it'll be a little adventure game. you play as the carrot hippie. the donut slug is the land lord and he's about to kick you out of your pad because he aint chilled enough and you owe him rent($400) the point of the game is to enter a cooking contest to win $400 and pay him back... and win the game?
there will be some weird characters, I haven't even sprited the taco-shelled turtle I sketched at work

IFF I can finish it before the end date... you'll see. I don't want to spoil much but I want to program a dynamic food system(DFS) where any object found in game can be put in food to make a food. sum music in the game(freshly rendered):

it's for the inside of a bank, but... you'll see.

and gbro that's a snazzy lookin game, nice sonic fanart there ;D

Here's a preview release of my game: http://gamejolt.com/freeware/games/caveman/download/9690/




I'm going to make a topic eventually but I might work on this some more before the deadline... but if anyone wants to play it here you go, let me know what you think. It's made with XNA4.0 and built against .NET4.0 so if you need any help getting it running let me know, I have no idea if it will even be playable.

after being incredibly busy, i started on something resembling a dungeon crawler today. your entries look awesome, by the way!

lol still haven't finished all the main character sprites, still a WIP...
so yeah still far from done but I have 2.5 background graphics finished, I only plan on having about 10 "rooms" in the game so hopefully... I can get er done.
