Fast Go Fast - A Fully Featured Game Developed in 6h18m25s

SoaringMoon — Thu, 19 Dec 2019 08:38:27 +0000

I developed an entire game (speedrun style) during a live stream. Planned, programmed, designed, styled, voice acted, and sourced audio in just over 6 hours. After which Fast Go Fast was born, a lowrez dodge game where you play as a block, avoiding other blocks, while accelerating to ludicrous speed. It is a "simple" game, but I put as many features a game like this could have. I made sure to keep it stylistically interesting, doing the art for block generation by hand. The game saves high scores and allows them to be shared with others.

The game itself, after adding the music, turned out to be 178MB in size, because I refuse any game I made to loop audio during gameplay.

You can download the game free from gamejolt.

Anthem (the bioware game) Has a Garbage Loot Generator

So, I rewrote the generator. It doesn't stack duplicate effects because it doesn't to so in game either (lazy I know), but it makes the players feel like they are getting more for less ("I GOT 2 DAMAGE BONUSES INSTEAD OF ONE."). Randomly generated parts and effects based on equipment type. New rarities, better item alchemy.

Also some rarities have a CSS animation to make them pulse. Neat little touch I think.

If you want me to gamify anything for you let me know. :P
