Slime Salad

Day 16 of Ichy and Sdratchy: Ichiro did a whole bunch of card art today. I completed the game today, you can play it from start to end now. Ichiro went missing by the time I wrapped it up so I sent it off to Giz for testing. No huge issues, but there's still a bunch of polish I need to do. None of ...

Day 15 of Ichy and Sdratchy: Ichiro has been working on the art of the cards. He doesn't know if he'll have time for heroes/story stuff or not, but eh palette swaps are good enough I'm sure. I finished up implementing equipment, items, and heroes today. So all that's left is finishing up dungeon la...

Day 14 of Ichy and Sdratchy: Today Ichiro turned in his work on battles. I'm going to cut to the chase: he did 6 basic attacks and bound them to 4 enemies and only filled out stats for one of the enemies. No items, no equipment, no hero stats, no hero attacks, no testing on any of it. I'll be blunt...

Day 13 of Ichy and Sdratchy: Did pretty much the same thing as yesterday. Slightly more behind on doing level layouts than I'd like to be but not terrible so. Ichiro is going to turn in the battles tonight. Little bit nervous 'cause I'm not entirely sure how much work I'm going to have to do in the...

Day 12 of Ichy and Sdratchy: Mostly just came up with and implemented some more content. Ichiro reported he had to cut some things from battles but would still get them mostly in on time. Have a feeling the last 48hrs are going to be a doozy since I dunno if Ichiro is going to get the town done or ...

Day 11 of Ichy and Sdratchy: Wrote the soundtrack today. Probably a profound waste of time since mediocre original music doesn't really win you contests, but I hate ripping stuff and I had fun making it so it's a win as far as I'm concerned. Ichiro made some substantial progress on battles. Everyth...

Day 10 of Ichy and Sdratchy: Told Ichiro I want the battles done by Wednesday to give myself a 48hr period to properly integrate and balance everything together (and in the worst case scenario, add anything that's missing). Today I finished up the last of the required scripts so from this point for...

Day 9 of Ichy and Sdratchy: Ichiro decided he wanted to continue to work on the battles. Which is fine by me, gives me more time to make the rest of the dungeons cooler. I just hope he gets them done with enough time to spare for me to balance everything together. Today I mostly did a bunch of bori...

Day 8 of Ichy and Sdratchy: Got a whole bunch of the scripting done. Will probably be entirely done with it tomorrow and be able to move on to content. Ichiro didn't do anything. I asked if he wanted me to take the battles back since I got the scripts done faster than expected so he can focus on th...

Day 7 of Ichy and Sdratchy: Got some proper script work done. Not as much as I'd like, but plenty. Most of the rest of the work (really all of the work) is just get-through-it type stuff. Ichiro wasn't around today, but that's ok because I knew it ahead of time. Worried that he hasn't done too much ...

Day 6 of Ichy and Sdratchy: Started day off by drastically simplifying one of the systems to make project more manageable. Ichiro wasn't fond of any the visual designs he came up with yesterday. Started to work on slice layouts for various components. Breaking tradition, I'm not going be a coward a...

Day 5 of Ichy and Sdratchy: Work elsewhere has been busier than I expected. I really shouldn't have signed up for this contest. Previously in this contest I ended up working way harder than I should have with multiple days spent doing nothing but the contest game. But I just can't do that this year...

Day 4 of Ichy and Sdratchy: Not a very productive day for me. Didn't really manage to do much with the remaining part of the design. At this point I've decided it'll just have to come to me later and I moved on to planning on the coding. Have a pretty good idea of how I'm going to do this. Discusse...

Day 3 of Ichy and Sdratchy: Pretty much pounded out a design doc for...let's say...half of the game? Will do the other half tomorrow. As usual with this contest, I'm realizing I got myself into more work than I should have taken on. I started the day off super excited about the idea and ended the d...

Day 2 of Ichy and Sdratchy: [s]Partner still hasn't shown up. I had hoped he had learned from last year to actually be around at the start of the contest, but apparently not. Still plenty of time left to do something when he finally does show up. Sent him a PM in case he forgot to check the thread o...
