Are you going to post about the games submitted to the last jam on the website? Since the mailing list is gone I am not sure what came out.

Elouin

Sadly non of the regulars had time last LibreJam, so there were some concept that we talked about, but no playable game in the end.

I don't have direct access to the website, but already submitted a patch with updates. Should be there in the next few days.

Elouin

This time we got at least one submission(which i also worked on a little):

Push to Kill

You are stranded on a Planet and aliens start to chase you. As it seems the energy of your weapons projectiles makes the aliens replicate instead of killing them. But the impact still pushes them back a little.
Try to push the aliens into the traps and suvive as long as possible.

Controls

W,A,S,D - move around
Left Mouse Button - shoot at aliens

Interesting graphical style. IMHO gameplay would be better if you would have copied Vampire Survivors more :)

Elouin

The assets were drawn with colored pencils and then just photographed with a phone.

Never heard of Vampire Survivors before. CLion and i were "inspired" to make such a game because we both played quite a lot of "20 Minutes 'til Dawn".

I get an error when I load it up in Godot.

"Invalid call. Nonexistent function 'set_playing' in base 'AnimatedSprite'."

The web version worked for me though.

Technopeasant Did you use Godot 3.5?

Technopeasant

I am apparently still stuck on v.3.4.5 after updating.

Does the syntax really change that frequently in Godot?

Colour Swarm from last year is now finally working for me though.

Guess it might be good to mention to people that it is good to have a web or executable version since not everyone has easy access to the latest version of the Godot editor.

Elouin

Thats why we have the webversion. In general it seems like stuff easily breaks between godot updates.
