Why hi there!
I'm a young guy from Finland, and I mostly do stuff with music (compose, listen, play etc.).
I just registered for this site, since the software (Construct 2) caught my interest
I've always liked gaming, since playing games is fun and stuff. I've also wanted to make games for quite some time. I know nothing of coding, so I've been drawn towards other methods of developing games. The very first thing I tried out was "Sploader", which some of you might recognize. While that was fun for a while, Sploader wasn't really what I was aiming for. After that, I remember trying out "Game Maker". This was much more to my liking. However, the output formats didn't really interest me at all. I wanted to be able to publish flash games. I'm pretty happy I didn't finish any games at the time though, as I was SO young when I made them. I replayed them some time ago, and while the ideas were actually not too bad, the whole SUCKED XD
Recently though, there was a contest called "Stencyl Jam (2014)", in which I finally decided to participate. The contest was announced and held by "Newgrounds". Thus, I made my first ever game using a software called "Stencyl", and I was really happy. Even better, was the fact that my game actually won 4th place! Can you imagine, hahha?
If you feel like it, you can try the game over at my newgrounds profile (my name is "LucidShadowDreamer". Just google it, and you'll find me [I'm not allowed to post links yet]).
^D-Pression^
After that, I decided to participate in the Ludum Dare 29 Jam, also using Stencyl. I made a much simpler game, which can also be played by those who are interested (Also at my Newgrounds account).
^Drop Up^
Enough talk of Stencyl.
I'm really happy with the software, but I'm also ready to try new things out. Next on the list: "Construct 2."
As many of you know, a new contest was announced back at Newgrounds, and this time, it's time to make a game with Construct 2 XD
I've checked in the software already, and so far, everything seems great!
The theme for the contest is "The Future: 2030", and there are some nice prizes too :'D
It will be fun trying to work with Construct, and I hope that everything goes well. Thanks for reading!
