Global Game Jam

After I finished my final project for college, I participated on the Global Game Jam and it was a great experience and awesome time! The event was really well planned and I have nothing but compliments to give to all the people involved on it.
I went to the event with friends and as a result we have Harvest Sky, a platformer, Harvest Moonish game.

We thought about floating islands and giving freedom to the players to explore the endless sky as they wished, growing their floating archipelago and eventually meeting other characters with whom they could choose to interact or not.

We decided to go with pixel art for the game's art style, we already had lots of good references and thought it could bring a charming feel to the game, I think that was a good decision.

I was really tired from working on my college project, one of my friends was still working on his and others had work, so the team agreed to take the jam in a nice pace so that everybody could have a good time. We ended up making the game in 27 hours and I think we got pretty far, considering our small, but growing, experience in video game making XD

After the jam we were left with that feeling of wanting more, so we are going to continue working on Harvest Sky. Soon I'll have new things to post about it, but for now I'll leave the art for the crops below as well as the link to the Global Game Jam version of it.
