Spring RTS Engine

wow, very cool! :)

i even like the name of the game! What about a release post and/or a dedicated forum/wiki page about gravitas? :)

We have to fix the collision handling first :p

Gajop or others should decide whether they want a forum for it or not, I don't mind. We could have a general SpringCabal forum, since I guess we'll play LD again.

Definitely. I'd even rework the level and add checkpoints so it's more enjoyable (I predict it would take me the same amount of time to do that as fixing collisions would).
Rapid release would require some additional engine/rapid work first.

We should have a Gravitas forum and a wiki page (with link on the Game page) and move this topic there.

Looks like the Spring Forum fairies granted your wish

The graphics, fun and overall scores are pretty close to what I expected. I did think we'd get ranked slightly higher in the graphics with it, but I guess I was wrong (not sure how many Jam entries there were out of 1468 jam entries).

I guess more focus should be on polish for next time (maybe a whole day just for that), and hopefully come with a better engine version
