For the Mini-LudumDare gamejam May 2015, the theme is 'swapshop'.
This jam happens in two parts:
- Everyone downloads the 128x128 pixel template image sheet and redraws it however they like.
- People create their games using only graphics from their redrawn spritesheet. At the end of the jam everyone swaps spritesheets and imports them into their game, meaning you have no idea what your game will look like until the very end!
(Of course there will be games that will use ALL the submitted spritesheets ;)
Runs until May 31st.
Full details on http://ludumdare.com/compo/2015/05/05/minild-59-swapshop/ - this website and http://swapshop.pixelsyntax.com/ - here
This is the example spritesheet:
Make a new/better/alternate version, and
http://swapshop.pixelsyntax.com/ - submit spritesheet here
There are API calls to get a random image, or to get a list of all the submitted spritesheets.
http://swapshop.pixelsyntax.com/api/randomImage - http://swapshop.pixelsyntax.com/api/randomImage
http://swapshop.pixelsyntax.com/api/allImagesList - http://swapshop.pixelsyntax.com/api/allImagesList
For myself, I'm doing a quick spritesheet, and then I want to write a little webgame that uses random spritesheets (or allows the user to switch)
