The game is an entry for Ludum Dare #15, a 48 hour game programming contest. Although I didn’t get any great ideas and the game was looking rather plain half-way through, I think it turned out pretty okay!

I really like the end result of the collaboration, although I feel kind of out of place - my tile doesn’t quite hold up. Anyway, here it is:

Hexquisite Corpse Tile. I think I learned a few things working on this, but in retrospect I should probably have chosen something I can handle better.

Then Bigger said I should pixel the pure rapture of doing something you love. Well… Oookay then… :>

Happiness. Not spectacularly detailed or anything, but I’m pretty happy with it nonetheless. :)

I’ve been delaying this post for a few days because I wanted to use the pink/purple, but I just can’t seem to fit it in. So… Well, this is a cop-out. Apart from that, I think it turned out okay.

Cat 1

Cat 1. Not very happy with this one.

Space Colony. I tried to use correct perspective rules for this one. It’s a bit too clean and flat, but apart from that I think it’s okay.

And then somebody told me to make a helicopter… with Zombies. Well, then!

Zombie Chopper? Wasn’t my idea. I promise!

Monochromes 1. That’s… an icecream and a stone age robot. Supposedly.

 

EDIT: I couldn’t resist making some random mockup. Collectible fruit would of course have been vastly superior to that ugly ice cream, but you can’t get everything. :>

I know this isn’t exactly it, but hopefully it’s a step in the right direction. Lighting is tricky for me! :)

Figurines 1. Could use some further work, I think.
