Mini-LD #19 - Gunner Robo Pocket

Mini-LD #19 has begun!

The theme for this event is "Industry"

My concept is that of a game that has you playing randomly-generated "Games" that each consist of 5 levels with a boss fight at the end of the 5th. (I may add a mini-boss to the 3rd level if I have time)

Each "game" will have a player character who is a combination of three attributes:

• Overall Shape (Humanoid, Mech, Tank, or Flying Thing)
• Flight Action (None, Multi-Jump, Hover, or Fly)
• For the "Flying Thing" these mean: (None, Speed Burst, Turbo, or Ramming)
• Weapon (Normal Gun, Charging Gun, Spread Gun, or Rapid Gun)

The "Games" will also use a variety of item and weapon rules:

• Infinite ammo, limited ammo, or regenerating ammo?
• Shields or no shields?
• Items or no items? (Ammo will be either infinite or regenerating if there are no items)
• Flight has a cost?
• If so, shields, ammo, or both?
• Or does it use its own energy?

I should have something by tomorrow afternoon. I'll be hosting the downloads on my public DropBox, and will be posting links to the downloads here and on the LudumDare.com blog. I may also tweet them, but those will be formatted with tinyurl.com

Until then, peace.
