Knox Game Design had four great entries for the Spring ’20 game jam! The theme was “Keep it Alive”. Let us know if we missed your game and we will add it to the list.
You play as robot making it’s way through a impossible facility filled with mechanical ghosts. You must keep your batteries filled by standing under strange floating light sources, and avoid the ghosts by not staying in their detection for too long.
Click “Watering Can” and “Plant Food” to apply water or plant food to the plant.
Young Cerberus is just 30 days away from being old enough to guard the gates of hell. Keep him alive and entertained long enough, and Hades best friend will serve you well for years to come.
Keep the chickens alive by clicking on the falling apples to prevent them from falling on the chicken’s head. If an apple hits a chicken, then it is knocked out. Additional chickens are awarded after clicking a number of apples. Once all of the chickens are knocked out, the game is over.
There will not be a regular “second Sunday of the month” meeting this month due to Easter Sunday.
However, we will do an online Spring ’20 kickoff on Friday April 17, 2020 at 7:00pm Eastern Time. This will take the place of the regularly scheduled April meeting, and it will be recorded and posted as the monthly podcast.

Knoxville Game Design invites you to attend the online meeting and podcast recording for Sunday December 8, 2019 at 2pm Eastern Time.
This month’s topic is SDL with C. Before Unity and GameMaker, there was the Simple Direct Media Layer. It can be used to create 2D and 3D games on a wide variety of platforms. C is still one of the most widely used programming languages. We will discuss how to get a simple game running in C using the SDL libraries.
Any questions on the topic or game development in general are welcome. We will also have time for “show and tell” for anyone who wants to share any game projects that they have been developing.

Knoxville Game Design invites you to attend the online meeting and podcast recording for Sunday November 10, 2019 at 2pm Eastern Time.
This month’s topic is Scratch. Scratch is a game development environment where visual code blocks are dragged and dropped instead of writing code. It is a good tool to introduce programming concepts to people who have no coding experience.
