Day 1 of Ludum Dare 58 is almost over, and I’m super proud of what we’ve accomplished together with @irensa.bsky.social, who’s responsible for the graphics.

I built a simple ASCII tic-tac-toe game in C++ this weekend.

Added power cards that the player or enemy can use during their turn. Now the game allows for different tactics, and the outcome doesn't rely solely on pure randomness.

Just prototyped a small card game. The gameplay is very basic, but still fun to play.

Created a window in C using #raylib. I am a huge fan of Win95 aesthetics, so I can't wait to recreate the rest of the GUI elements!

The "Digital Pet" project is progressing well:

- Implemented core Tamagotchi-style mechanics;
- Added randomized pet traits;
- Built pet status display system;
- Integrated in-game menu;

I decided to start with the classic set of blocks: dirt, grass, stone, sand, sandstone and gravel.

I've improved biome and climate zone generation: they're now much larger and have more natural, seamless borders. Here's a preview of a 100x100 chunk world!

I decided to experiment with creating an infinite 2D world. So far, I’ve managed to implement chunk loading and unloading, as well as biome generation based on temperature, moisture, and elevation maps.

The biome transitions still look rough for now, the maps need fine-tuning.

I decided to stick with a Compo, but update the game and upload it on itch.

The game is finished, but there are game design mistakes that ruin progression. I was in a hurry and did not have time to playetest and fix.

Thus I will switch to Jam and upload a polished version for it.

You can still try Compo here: ldjam.com/events/ludum...

Day 2. 8 hours left. I made good progress today, but I still need to implement some important logic for the core mechanics. Hopefully, I’ll have enough time to record sounds and create some music. At least the game’s looking better now.

Day one of Ludum Dare is over. I've got about 40% of what I planned done. Feeling pretty optimistic!

Six hours in, and I’ve finished the basic game design, drawn the tileset, and coded the core tile logic.

I've released a tool to easily generate palette files with the correct index order — Palpatine 256.

It supports Microsoft Palette, JASC Palette, GIMP .gpl, and Photoshop .act conversion.
