There are two white boards in the level that represent the two zombies that i was going to add to the level, for no reason other than to have some zombies. I didn’t have time to add the zombies :/, but the boards are still there.

Name of submission: Spring Jumper

You start inside a lush valley in **spring **season. Follow the the river that **springs **nearby towards the mysterious and futuristic “The City”, **springing **through spring-based jump pads.

You can also move objects ahead or backward in time to put them in or out your way, as needed. But overdo it and they will crumble!


The game turned out to be too difficult after the first waterfall. We had a lot of work with level design (placing and testing all those jump pads took a lot of time), we should have made a smaller map so we could playtest it better. Lesson learned! So if you manage to finish it, consider yourself l33t (Note: it is possible to finish, we did it, it’s just very difficult currently).

The game plays in first person view. Our opinion is that an immersive first person view would make this game interesting in VR.

All assets that aren’t from Epic samples were made by us, except for the music (which is by Ars Sonor at freemusicarchive.org) and a couple sound effects (from freesound.org).

Controls are presented via in-game tutorial, but if you skip them, here they are:

  • WASD moves.
  • Space bar jumps.
  • Holding space bar uses jetpack. Its fuel is very limited, but some pickups restore it. These pickups do not respawn.
  • Left-click or right-click on a moving platform (jump pad, tunnel, ring, or wall) moves it ahead or backward in time. It loses “health” the longer you do this and eventually crumbles (forever).

Discussion thread here.

Multiplayer game

note: there’s a bug sometimes when hosting as the host client can’t see anyone else but else who joins can see each other. A workaround we found is running 2 game clients on the host pc and one of them will work >_<
Didn’t manage to implement winning condition or number of player lives in time so it’s an endless slaughter.
Only the host can see the kill scores.
Need to use console to join games - type “open (ipaddress)” *example *open 192.168.0.1
The host needs port 7777 open and needs to type in console open?listen

You are an embryo. You are incapable of fighting at the moment so must pass through the magical aging spring in order to spring into your future self. Then fight for your life.

Will you end up being a young nimble fledgling full of energy, a powerful strapping man at his prime or an elderly wise wizard?

Description

In this game I wanted to represent through the game’s mechanics, one of the risks of traveling to the future. And that is, not knowing if you will be safe in it.
You play as a cube that has the power to advance in time, the power is called Leap and it allows you to heal yourself while you travel a few seconds ahead of the gameplay.

Content was made by me except particles (edited from starter content), sounds (cc0) and font (tolerant.ttf).

This is my first entry. If you download this game have fun playing it and thank you. :slight_smile:

Hello Friends and competitors! I am happy to bring you a game for this jam! There are few bugs, but it is pretty playable. See how many astronauts you can get! The future of earth is at risk so a mars colony has been sent to form on mars! Manage your resources and your astronauts and prove that it truly is possible to colonize Mars! The future is in your hands!

All assets included are original. For this jam I challenged myself to only use a single cube mesh for the whole project. I succeeded, with a single exception of a sphere for the bio-domes. I also used no image based textures. All the materials were made with material nodes. All structures etc were made using instanced meshes, and the character animations are just run-time rotation+motion etc.

I’m sorry, there are some bugs, most notable is that the building’s don’t properly look for collisions when they are placed. Also, occasionally the astronauts will refuse to mine some rocks. It’s probably because they are scared of space spiders.

(If you get stuck, you can use a free 1 time boost by pressing “K” to reset your resources to a good level. I put this in since i didn’t have enough time to fully balance the game through play testing.)

This will probably be helpful. I didn’t have time to add an in-game UI for it, so here are the building costs for constructing the different buildings: (Landing craft was renamed in-game to “Base Camp.” This does not include upkeep costs.

NohlCraft + Squaky

Welcome to another episode of “Alexotronic makes something in a few hours that has absolutely zero gameplay.” :rolleyes:

I am currently on a futuristic craft - floating through space. soaring the skies. sailing the ocean. spelunking the depths of human existence.
I re-created my room to scale with BSP. Tried out a technique where I use masked photos instead of geometry for some things. (Visible in screen shot)

My girlfriend took her first attempt at photogrammetry. VERY cool technique. The model is decimated down to 50k polys, the version with a couple million looks better obviously.
(I’ll include the mesh/textures in the download if anyone wants to poke around with it) (also - the thing in the center of the room is a clay model she made)

When it says ‘difficulty increased’ it lies. This feature didn’t make it.

Also I didn’t have time to create an intro as planned, so here it is in text:

Spring sits in front of his Futurevision screen, turns it on
Spring (in a high pitched metallic voice): Look it’s me! In the future! But I am all rusty and old. I must do something now to prevent this.

And then he embarks on his journey through time and space to gather special anti-rust substance and save himself from rusting in the future.

Oh look my first jam in a while! Very easy game as I didn’t add the planned harder mechanics like buttons / moving blocks / roaming robots.
Everything was made during the jam apart from the royalty free music.
9 ‘bits’ to find!

This is my first game jam and actually, my first game. It’s not finished so let me explain my idea behind this project. It’s quite mataphorical. I associated the spring with corkscrew and the name is from sound of opening a bottle. Our hero would wake up every day with uncontrolled desire for wine. The very decision to drink wine though, I would leave it to the player. If only I could get so far I would make a timer (some kind of clock + current day) which would grow slowly (till the FUTURE on the end of an axis). However, waiting isn’t playing so I guess most people would try to lavishly treat the hero with wine, which would make a timer rush forward. The next day hero and player would struggle with consequences. The essence of that contemplating is about that weird interest about unknown and wish to focus only on it. A progress bar to “future” would intentionally tempt the player, probably never achievable.
Ok, idea sounds cool as always but I couldn’t manage to make it, even though I thought I simplified it as possible and I spent quite a long time for that. It’s my first fight with UE4, I’ve learned a lot and had a lot of fun! See you soon.

edit:
I know it’s Wednesday already but I finally added the link to download my project. I figured out how to pack the project so it would work outside the editor. I haven’t changed anything since the Sunday’s midnight, I just had no time. I’m uploading it here just for the record because I guess I’m not even considered as participant anyway. Next time I promise I will try to upload it in time, haha. :smiley:

There is a way to escape.

EDIT: I misread the submission rules and thought it could be submitted up until the morning of the 18th. It took a while to get it cooked, packaged, and uploaded, so I had to stay up until 4 am (mountain time) for that to be completed. I hope this game can still be considered since I poured in 35+ hours getting it done. Thanks!
