ke51n Posted November 19, 2016 https://itch.io/jam/wizard-jam-4/rate/102117 I don't really have time to do a full dev log, but I figured I would post an intro at least. Tom Francis is an international and space superspy. As Agent Francis, you have to infiltrate office buildings in space. You start armed with only a grappling hook, which will allow you to grapple into walls and ceilings, and slam into people. You can steal outfits and weapons as well. Between and possibly mid-mission, you may receive messages from your artist for the game you are making as a cover. (Based on the Tom Francis episode of Tone Control) That said, who knows what I will actually be able to finish. The game will be made in Gamemaker. My friend may help me with some coding. I will be doing the art and some coding. I realize my plan is way overscoped for two weeks, so I will probably make a simplified version without animations, sounds etc. I hope to be able to have two working levels by the end of this jam. If people are interested in the game and if it's fun to play, I might continue working on it for a few months after the jam to polish it up a bit. (oh yeah, if Mr. Francis sees this: I'm sorry. This is probably really wierd.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ke51n Posted December 5, 2016 Ok all I could finish before the end of the jam was a tiny playable teaser. https://kevin888.itch.io/tom-francis I'll keep at it in the next few weeks to try and get a more complete game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Berzee Posted December 13, 2016 I played it and left a rating+comment through the itch app, but I'm not sure where those comments show up. Anyhow, I liked it! The game's approach to conflict resolution is very appropriate of the eponymous Francis. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
