Doing #ludumdare with @valebragato and @Stephen_Chan_ this weekend! We finally have our idea, and I've gotten the first bit of "gameplay" in and working. We even have a trello board, because I'm a horrible producer now. Wish us luck! #GameDev
Scene transitioning between the two placeholder environments we've planned. #ludumdare #gamedev
Hooks in for basic animation. Setup triggers to transition the player into different states. States are where a lot of the game will happen. #ludumdare #gamedev
Probably going to look at using Fungus for this! I hear nothing but good things. Kinda dumb to use a brand new tool in a gamejam, but hey, if all goes smoothly then we could be code complete by midday tommorow.
Dang! This tool is......da bomb. Took about three minutes to put in branching dialogue, with player choice, and even a choice timer? Wow wow wow. This is FREE? #ludumdare #gamedev
Final feature of the evening, added a timeline tracker so you know how many in-game days have passed. This will affect what events spawn and when. I haven't done a gif because that seems boring.
First on the list for tomorrow is some kind of system to sort and store event dialogues. That's the biggest and scariest part for me as a "programmer" cause it kind of sounds like I should know what I'm doing there.
After a good nights rest, a roast dinner and a movie, I'm back at it. Taking the opportunity to review our game's design, and look at making some changes now that we have our technical tools mostly built. #ludumdare #gamedev
It can be tempting to skip stuff like this while jamming, but I think its important to (a) let ideas turn over in your head a while, and (b) take time to do some game design. Helps with scope, motivation and quality I think.
Basics of an instant messaging system are in. You get a message, it exists for a certain amount of time, then disappears if you miss it.
Art team has some awesome stuff planned. I have one more feature to go and we are Code Complete for the MVP!
And audio is happening too! Yahoo!
Final feature until content implementation: phonecalls! Maybe they're coming from inside the house. #ludumdare #ludumdare46
I've found it fairly crazy how far my scripting ability has come since I first started messing with unity. This is almost a game!
Artwork is now happening, and content is being written slowly behind the scenes. Looking amazing from the dream team of @Stephen_Chan_ and @valebragato

Art! Character! Animation! Love this part of a jam where everything starts to come together. #GameDev #ludumdare #ludumdare46
Art pass. Go follow @valebragato and @Stephen_Chan_ if you like it. Built with nothing but out own two hands and stuff available for free on the asset store. #ludumdare #ludumdare46 #gamedev
Art pass 3, bit of an experimental one in game design terms. Still needs some VFX adding for Narrative Reasons. #ludumdare #ludumdare46 #gamedev
Another treat I don't normally get to do in my day job - animation! A ton of fun. #ludumdare #ludumdare46
Doing some final bits of polish - a little treat that @Stephen_Chan_ keeps asking for - dynamic cameras when you Do Stuff. #ludumdare #gamedev
