Socoder -> Mini Challenges -> Xmas Xompo 2010 : Status Report

The Challenge



Xmas, Santa, Presents, Snow, Kids, Trees, yada yada yada.
It's totally open, do what you want.

The Compo

There will be a prize of some sort at the end of this xompo.
I haven't the faintest idea what this'll be, and will probably end up being a lazy-assed "Stick £.p into Paypal account, be done with it."

£100 in the kitty.


The Rest of the Rules

...are available here


Status Report

So, who's joining in, and how far have you gotten?

That's Freaky, I was just going to start a thread like this.

I'm in and started last night.

I have just started the game really, but shouldn't be too hard to get working, just need to find the right control method.

Also my pixel art isn't the best and takes me a while to get anything sorted.

My status is: long way to go!

finished: side-scrolling, animation code, building/object selection, gui code, building hq code

warning: I am no art man, hoping to get someone to help me out a bit on graphics.

I have a pretty good idea of what I intend to do, but am having some trouble sorting out a few medium-sized gameplay issues in my head. Once those are out of the way, I'll be ready to start, although I'm probably pushing it a bit by now.

I've finished, although I'm hoping to add a few christmassy photos before I submit it.
