Ecstatic to see my #gamejam do as well as it did.
Ranked 180th out of 1181 Jam entries for #ludumdare.
It's the inspiration for what I'm working on now... and I learned a ton from it for a possible #indiegame.

HELP! Not sure which style to go with.
1) No outlines (left)
2) Environment outlines, but not char (right, left char)
3) All outlines (right, right char)
Any help and recommendations please. Which one makes the most sense?

My version of "greyboxing" to start prototype mechanics.
I need SOMETHING to look at to keep sane, but not spending too much time on art so I can focus on fleshing out mechanics.
Plus, it'll prob take me 5x as long as a real artist to make something of quality, lol.

I just spent 8 hours replacing 3 window regulators in my car. I'm confident when I say... I'm not cut out for the trades.
I'm going to stick with #development... please AI don't replace me!

I think prototyping comes in 2 stages. Testing the core mechanic and then testing the game loop. The core mechanic felt good. Controlling an airship is awesome!
..But then I started on the actual project and realized so many things are still unproven. I'm just on stage 2.

The foundation is coming along. Not trying to reveal too much about the idea yet, but I think a public prototype is feasible in 2 months time.

Finally got it working to make equippable items scalable. Now all logic is handled in the equippable interface which will make it much easier to handle multiple equippable consoles.
