This will be my … 3rd(?) time goin in, this time I have switched it up a bit from the standard Lua + LÖVE2D with Game Maker Studio Pro which I bought this x-mas. I have played around with it a bit and it has worked out really good so far!

It’s an excellent piece of tool for rapid prototyping and I’m expecting to get a lot further this time around, I will of course be using GML for logic and probobly make use of Grandma Engine if I decide to do a platformer, depending on the announced theme and what ideas I get.

Toolkit includes:

• Game Maker Studio Pro – As an engine for game making.
• Pyxel Edit – As main pixel-art program.
• Audacity, Bfxr and Abundant Music – Programs for creating music and sound effects.
• Trello – For organizing thoughts and features.
• OBS and Chronolapse – For streaming and timelapse.

I’m pretty excited, and so far my favorite theme is Grow, which I hope will be chosen (Though I don’t have any ideas yet!).

Good luck everyone!
