Every once in a while you decide “Man, I should make a game in 24 hours and let the kids design the levels for it.” Using only 4 colors. (I made an exception for the indicators on the HUD.)<\/p>\n

Maybe that doesn’t come up super often for anybody…<\/p>\n

That’s basically how my latest project came to be: DigiGhost (v0.1)<\/a>. Another Godot project. You play as-a-not-particularly-maneuverable ghost in the machine. \u00a0A digital machine with roving malicious viruses. A digital ghost that has to collect chips and avoid getting too corrupted by said viruses.<\/p>\n

To kind of help get the kids involved, I let them design the levels… and they got\u00a0pretty evil while they were at it. \u00a0It appears to carry a certain amount of pride to create a level that is difficult to beat. \u00a0The youngest wanted the viruses to give chase as soon as you came near, and mercilessly pursue you until you died. \u00a0I appreciated the thought, but decided that being able to actually clear the stages might be a good idea.<\/p>\n

I can attest that they are all beatable. \u00a0Just need to be selective in which viruses you plow into sometimes. No music, or pausing, but there are some bfxr<\/a> sound effects.<\/p>\n

Just chmod and away you go.]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
