Game Developers Refuge

THE NEXT CHALLENGE STARTS NOW

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to use the emoji generator to make a micro-game based off of 4 randomly generated emoji. There are no special rules for this compo.

RULES

1. GO HERE.
SELECT "Regular 4x4x4" from the dropdown
Generate 4 emoji until something makes sense. The goal is to get weird so don't just sit there and reroll until you can make Mario.

2. Make a micro-game using the 4 emoji as your theme.

3. All targets are allowed. All libraries/engines are allowed. Get out there and get shit done.

4. Reusing code and assets is highly encouraged. Build on your successes and make your life easier.

5. Challenge ends in one month. So March 5th for teh slow.





EXAMPLE:




With this, I might make a game where people compete within a high-rise to swap apartments as fast as possible, or maybe have two moving services competing to move furniture between apartments within a time window.

I would like to pop out an entry tomorrow, but I really only have a few hours to spare so we'll see how far I get.

Emoji:

Three entries (that I know of) so far :]
You've got another day if you want to slip in under the deadline.

This was a pretty solid compo. We got three entries (Deleter, Syn9, and myself) and we all slid in close to the deadline. I think part of the win here is us getting closer to having quick, stable frameworks we can hang ideas on with minimal effort. Deleter also got a web build going with Raylib, which was cool as hell, and something I need to try in the near future.
