Day 2

About hour 13 into the game jam, I decided it was really funny to make a bunch of "flipper towers" and make them dance in unison. So I give you "pinball dance party!"

Here's a look at the big overnight coding marathon with the Portland Indie Game Squad. We got started on our projects last week, but about 40 of us got together yesterday for a two day long superjam that ends tonight. Very tired, but got alot done.

Since people seemed interested in the big game jam I mentioned earlier, here's a look at a very raw prototype of my Pinball/Tower Defense mashup game. I'll be posting it (with the other Pigsquad game jam games) on itch.io for free in early March!

Taking a break on Cubic Conundrum to join Portland Indie Game Squad's latest game jam. Instead of a normal theme, they give you a menu of dozens of options. You mix and match to make something cool. I've decided on a Tower Defense Pinball mashup. #gamedev #solodev #indiedev #indiegame #unreal

Solo dev is tough but things do start coming together eventually! Looking forward to the next fest!

Prototype of the day: A tank with spider legs, I know the rig is kinda good cause it gives me minor arachnophobia, but at the same time the legs are kinda too long so I have to work on that. #gamedev #godot #indiedev

Cubic Conundrum- Dev Log 15
To save space in the final file, I have multiple puzzles in the same room. Each puzzle starts out as a full 8x10 grid of cubes, but is "whittled down" during the game design phase. When loading, all puzzles are deleted except the one used.

Cubic Conundrum- Dev Log 14

Prism Cubes each have to be "charged" up to max before they can be captured. They get charged by capturing other Cubes. If you try to capture them before fully charging, you will simply pass right over without capturing it.

Cubic Conundrum- Dev Log 13
Shifter Cubes have a 2nd position (marked with the empty green square) that it will slide over to whenever the Crystal Cubes are triggered. This creates a puzzle map that will literally change itself every time a crystal is captured

Cubic Conundrum- Dev Log 12

Flame Cubes are impassable barriers that can't be captured unless they are deactivated. Capture a Crystal Cube to trigger every Flame Cube on the board. The trick: some Flame cubes start deactivated, others start activated.

Cubic Conundrum- Dev Log 11

Bomb Cubes destroys every cube next to it, but not always to your benefit. Sometimes you may find yourself being cut off from advancement. This one was a big challenge because of planning on how it would interact with other cubes.

Cubic Conundrum- Dev Log: 10
Vortex Cubes function similarly to Wormholes, but without the predictability of a paired exit. Instead you are teleported randomly. After testing, I decided I cant use these in the main puzzle mode. The chaos is impossible to plan for.

Honestly, yeah. DnD and board game days are the only social gatherings I actually look forward to. My group has been together for about 4 years now, and it's been great for my mental health.

neurodivergents really do the best board game parties, i just played catan for six consecutive hours & im not socially exhausted!

Nintendo: Hey, are you ready to shoot our new commercial?

Ad Guy: *snorts 8 lines of pure cocaine* ... I am now.

Cubic Conundrum- Dev Log 9

Regrowth Cubes: When you step on one of these mystical cubes of life and rebirth, the last 4 cubes you deleted are restored through powerful druid magic, or fairy dust, or something... I don't know. This game has no plot; it's a puzzle game.

Cubic Conundrum- Dev Log 8

Frozen Cubes are slippery conundrum cubes that will force you to the next, in what ever direction you were already moving. So plan your path accordingly, because these cubes are too slick to change directions on.

Next is the Wormhole Cube. Whenever you step on one, you are teleported across the puzzle to its pair instantly, so you better make sure you've handled all the nearby cubes before you get whisked away, because there is no return trip.

Finally started working on the Conundrum Cubes: special cubes that have powers to warp the puzzle in mind bending ways. First is the Shield Cube. The first time you cross, it only break the shield, so it needs to be crossed twice to capture. #gamedev #indiedev #solodev
