My idea is to have a fish with different scales on the body. Each scale has a pair.
We remove the scales finding the matching pair.
We win the game after matching all scales. We will have a spine on its place.
Probable names:
-Fish Scales
-Eat the Fish
-Another better name than those 2. They are not yet perfect.
Expansion Idea for after the jam:
-Dress the fish: the scales are placed on the spine according to a logical sequence or puzzle matching type.
Day 4 - After spending some time making some preps for the art, spent the next 3 days thinking how to implement the idea in code. As I am a beginner, I decided to use the maximum drag and drop functions on game maker, and as little hard coding as possible. Little steps, baby steps.
On day 4 found the best solution for making two equal scales disappear. Next.
Day 5 - Preparing all the little sprite scales, eye, spine, and little elements.
Note to self, for later, as there is no time to incorporate now:
Day 6 - Creating all the game mechanics on Game Maker using drag and drop only.
Added some sounds to selection, just in time for uploading to optical game jam.
Important things missing: The end of game effects.
Others: sounds, animation effects, info. HTML5 Verison.
EDIT: Forgot to upload the game, just done. Ops.
