https://queenofsquiggles.itch.io/contact-range As the sole engineer on a space ship with a angsty captain, your hands are normally pretty full. But now aliens are attacking the ship and turning off vital systems. Can you survive the onslaught while also keeping your job!?!? Helpful hintsIf you are running into a lot of trouble, make sure that your difficulty is set to what you would prefer. The default is 6.5, but it can range from 1.0-10.0, so pick a difficulty that fits best. Also be sure to change it from the main menu, as it may not work changing in the middle of the game. Gameplay The game uses 3rd person in 3D and 2D-esque environments as you explore. 2.5D sprites was a challenge area for me. I decided I wanted to use them, so I hope I did well on that. Tools Used- Godot Engine (4.1.1-Mono) - Squiggles Core 4X (aka SC4X) (A C# framework built on top of Godot) - Krita - Audacity - Blender Ludum Dare Opt-Out Category: AudioFor this game nearly everything is something I made myself. There are a few exceptions. Some of the GUI components and GUI SFX from SC4X come from Kenney's asset packs. Nearly all of the SFX and Music loops in the game are third party. I felt that the small ratio of graphics meant I could still get graded for that. But the audio is primarily from two sources: "FilmCow Royalty Free Sound Effects Library" and "Free Sci-Fi Game Music Pack". Both of which are effectively CC0, see pages for more details if you like ;)

Possible Feature Addition?Originally for the competition, I wanted to implement Discord Rich Presence. It would be surprisingly trivial to accomplish. So if that's a feature that people would be interested in, I could just make an archived version for the competition grading and add features to that new version. Let me know! |
