Slime Salad

Finishing short games is something to be proud of. I have gotten way more of a sense of satisfaction from all the short games I have finished than any of the longer games that I have not yet finished.

Is Gluep intended to be shiny and slick, like a slime? Or soft and mossy like a lichen?

If you want him to glisten like a slime, I suggest adding some highlights in a brighter green, especially on the portrait.

I just started working on this piece today (so it's not finished yet). It's for Blu Eternal's title screen. I only used a limited palette of 17 colors (from Blu Eternal's full 256 color palette) for this screen. The palette begins at a deep purple and blends all the way up to a light yellow. Beauti...

Except that's not right since "current map" doesn't really work like that. Any thoughts? Actually, yes, current map does work like that. The script you wrote should work fine. Although you can actually simplify it a bit further and not use a variable: if (current map == 1)...

Yes, I forgot. Escape the Wolf won first place. Virtual School 2 got second place, and the Labyrinth came in third. Here is how I counted the votes: Round 1 8 votes = Escape The Wolf Winner #1: Escape the Wolf Round 2 3 votes = Virtual School 2 2 votes = The Labyrinth 2 votes = Escape the Zo...

I will play

My Votes: Escape the Wolf - Since it looks like I am winning this contest, I'll give the feature-request to the 2nd place winner.

You are allowed to vote for your own game. But you don't have to if you don't want to.

This seems incredibly cool!

Are you doing the maptiles with a gridslice?

7 entries, by my count. I have listed them all <a href="http://www.slimesalad.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=76968#76968">in the first post</a> for convenience. Remember that when you vote, you don't need to use any numbers, just rank the games in order from favorite to least favorite. Does a w...

My game is Escape the Wolf: OHR ... and I am pretty darn happy about it. It even has two endings :) <a href="http://www.slimesalad.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=79040#79040">Escape the Wolf OHR</a> <a href="http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-21/?action=preview&uid=4779">My...
