Amazing progress so far! The animations are very cute and I like how the parents swoop down and zip back up to the tree. :>

Day 2
I've quickly realized how difficult coding can be. @_@ I'm using GML (Game maker language) to code and I made the simple controls to go Up, Left, and Right. I still can't quite figure out how to make gravity work how I want, but hopefully I will figure it out soon. Here's the test room that I have been using.
I made some placeholder sprites / art in my down time from coding and made these.
Hi ya'll, I'm Beetlebelle. This is my first time making a game and joining in on a game jam! It's going to be a lot of trial and error, but I am ready to do it!
Platform: Gamemaker (since I bought an older version on sale ages ago and didn't actually find time to use it)
Goals: Create a game! And gain a basic understanding on how to develop games using design programs.
Game Concept:
My game is going to be about a crow that helps a ghost remember who they once were. To do that they will fly around and collect items to bring back to the grave. (I still gotta flesh out the story, but I want it to be pretty simple)
Current Progress:
So far I made a test room to see how stuff works, and started adding test sprites to it. I want to make the bones of the game this way and then add in the final assets after I am happy with the controls.
To Do List:
- Flesh out the bare bones of the game
- Create the story
- Design and make the items, crow, and ghost
- Make/find(if free to use) backgrounds
- Place all the final assets
- Do any finishing touches
I probably forgot some stuff, but it'll probably be okay for now. ;v;
