Ludum Dare #15: Cavern Defense

Last week-end I participated in Ludum Dare.
This time the theme was caverns.
I had the the very ambitious plan to create a turn-based strategy for two players where I slightly overestimated my abilities and the time given.
Here is a screenshot:

Personal notes:
I’m not entirely happy with the result, because of some pretty nasty bugs and a few features which were cut due to lack of time. So I will be releasing an update in a few days. Stay tuned.
Linux notes:
- You need libSDL, libSDL_image, libSDL_mixer, libSDL_ttf and libSDL_gfx installed on your system to run the game.
Mac OS X notes:
- For some strange reason (specific FreePascal/SDL_mixer/Mac OS X – bug) there is no sound on Mac OS X.
- Be sure to copy the application from the image file to a directory with write permissions because the game creates a log file.
I put together a PDF with random thoughts and foodphotos during development and added a short post mortem:

(I realized I hadn’t chronolapse running all time during the LD, so my timelapse is rather short.)
