(5 october 2019)

Idea
You are in charge of getting presents in packaging order onto the boat of Sinterklaas (dutch Santa Claus)
When all the presents have been shipped the boat leaves and you don't have any presents left.

Gameplay : Clone of Tile Craft : click to match the presents. If the loading-dock gets full it is game over
Only the top presents on the pile can be picked from. So you need to gather the presents in a specific order to complete the level


Status
  • Level Editor     : 95%
  • Gameplay   : 50%
  • Assets     : 10%


Current editor


And the boat from Sinterklaas which he uses to visit us:






Next update: A little gameplay demo before heading to bed.



Obviously I need to create the docking behavior so that it either does a game over and/or rearrange/remove the match-three combinations.

Level design is something that hopefully be addressed tomorrow as well as a lot more assets!

Tomorrow I hope to do some more levels and extra art work as well.

Playtesting on a phone or tablet revealed that the resolution of the icons was too small.

Luckily, most of the code was using attributes so that changing their values meant that the layout could be changed.
The import of the graphics was easy since the assets where made using a higher resolution.
But I have to remake the levels.

The ludumdare game has been further developed and the original post has been updated with the final game.

There are 20 levels and with the level editor it is possible to create even more levels, but I'm kind of done with it.
Also there could be lots of polish applied but it was sufficient for my family enjoyment last weekend.
