Games / Ludum Dare

Ludum Dare is one of the world's largest and longest running Game Jam events. The games (or sometimes rather prototypes) you see here were made within 48 hours in the so-called Compo mode.

Nine Lives

April 2019 • 1,028 Lines • JavaScript • Unlicense

Nine lives aren't enough for Ludum Dare #44 "Your life is currency".

Use the cursor keys to move and the spacebar to search for dangers nearby, which will cost you half a life.

Saving Oskar

Try and save your dear lamb Oskar from being sacrificed.

The gods demand a sacrifice and so a lamb must die. But not Oskar, your dear friend. So you need to sacrifice another lamb. Again and again. Until all lambs are sacrificed, except Oskar. Then, and only then, the gods will be pleased and you win the game.

Made with Christian Braun for Ludum Dare #43 "Sacrifices must be made".

This is the only game I submitted in Jam mode because I didn't do it alone. Christian did almost all of the graphics and all the sounds and music.
