I challenge anyone who reads this two design and build a game in just two hours with the defold engine, I’m interested in taking part in this challenge but would like to see what you guys can do, so I look forward to seeing what you guys and gals can come up with in just two hours, Good luck.
Oh, interesting. I always enjoy stuff like this. Maybe if you put some limitations on the challenge? A theme? A few keywords? Maybe make a game out of a set of assets from kenney.nl?
Okay so using Kenny.nl assets create a game within two hours using the defold engine.
The Theme is “Comming to Life”
Ok, so I’ll start doing a game at 22:00 and ending at 00:00 tonight. The game will be some kind of Lemmings like puzzler where you have small aliens of different colors. You can only have aliens of a single color active at a time and the different colors will interact with the environment in different ways. The trick will be to toggle between the different colors to overcome obstacles and reach the exit.
I will work against this public GitHub repository: https://github.com/britzl/comingtolife
Starting in 10 minutes. Wish me luck.

Ah, didn’t really make it into anything playable… 
Another hour or two and I might have had something. Code is on GitHub and “game” can be found here: https://britzl.github.io/comingtolife/
Space/click to switch between aliens.

In other tools I can make all kinds of things just still trying to figure out the defold api really at this point and lua. Way better at c# or even c++

Keep working at it! I’m not at the master level yet either, but I am with other tools. Getting there though!
I’d like to do a two hour game challenge in the future. Maybe we can leave this thread going and people can do it when they have the time to? I bet that @Andreas_Jirenius would do a really good job!
