My concept for this week was to make a simple game to play with friends at a bar or something.  I drew inspiration from a couple of videos by TairaGames, one about making a game to play in a bar (who would have figured) and one about making a quick knife throwing game.

Here’s what I ended up with:

It’s real damn ugly right now, I think spending some time making a better background and designing some good UI will help greatly but the core concept functions and is somewhat fun.

At some point I plan on adding the following features:

-Mobile export, it’s clearly a mobile game already

-Selectable characters (something like a mage and a fighter at least if not many more)

-Sound and menus and all the trimming

It’s exciting to think where the game will be when I’m done with it, but this next week I’ll be on a different project with a few of my friends, I’m likely to go back and forth between these two projects for a little while.  Hopefully I don’t just get distracted by a different project in the meantime.
