A game I made for Ludum Dare 29

Made in 48 hours from idea to release. I joined Ludum Dare 29 with a clear vision in my mind: To
make an art game. So basically this time I wanted to focus more on art style, presentation &
graphics than on programming or technical excellence.

What went right:

Deadline was clearly set and I finished my work several hours before it. So the timing was
perfect.
The game was complete – all the levels, features, objectives.
Art style was exactly the same as it was in my head during the planning stage.
Players liked it!

What went wrong:

I should have put more focus on the main character.
I thought that nobody will finish the game, so i didn’t make an game end screen. I was wrong.
I didn’t vote on other games, so my score multiplier was small.

Loved the concept. Switching bodies is really fun. Good job on the audio as well.

Tech used:

As you can see the game is 3D almost without textures, it is just colors and lights with some 3D
models and funny sounds.

This way I managed to cut on time spent drawing and could afford to put more time into programming
game mechanics.

Spoiler:

Hats included as a game mechanic! 🙂

Screen Shots:

Using mind switch you can transport your consciousness to any other character and use them for any task.
