Hello,
2 weeks ago I participated on the Ludume Dare 31 Compo. My entry was the platformer game Cobot. You can find it on http://ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-31/?action=preview&uid=45230.

I decided to take this game as a basis and extend it and make a full 2D platfomer game. Since the theme of the compo was “Entire game on one screen” the hole level is on one screen. But I intend to change that and take it to a common platformer perspective. As a framework I use LibGDX and I plan to make a desktop and a android version.
The idea of the game is, that there are a variety of robots the player can choose from and play the game with them. The game will take place in a factory scenario, but the concept isn’t finished yet. Gameplay wise I want the game to be very challeging but give the player possibilitys to make it not too frustrating.The graphics and the gameplay aren’t nearly finisched, since they were made on one weekend.
Maybe you want to play the current version and tell me how the gameplay feels. For my other project Star Four I took a break and I will first finish this game and will continue Star Four after that.
