I don’t think anyone actually reads these things, but I’ll throw this in here for posterity.<\/p>\n

Ludum Dare is an awesome opportunity to channel your raw creativity through the focus of a time constraint. Every time I’ve enjoyed it and learned new things–and I just might’ve entertained a few players. Enough propping up Ludum Dare, though (even if it deserves it). Here’s the obligatory\u00a0run down:<\/p>\n

Shooting for the Compo, going solo. It always turns out unexpected bugs make me need the extra hours and I do the Jam. We’ll see<\/p>\n

Language: Dart (browser\/html5)<\/p>\n

Engine\/starting-point:\u00a0Updated:\u00a0<\/strong>Using my custom-rolled boiler plate code. Contains basic things like drawing sprites, initializing WebGL, updating entities, very basic collision detection, playing sound, etc.\u00a0https:\/\/bitbucket.org\/KyleMessner\/ld_base<\/a><\/p>\n

IDE: (not using one, but I’m using Sublime Text 2 and the dart command line tools, also the dartium browser for debugging)<\/p>\n

Graphics: mspaint and GIMP<\/p>\n

Audio: FL Studio 10, Audacity, SFXR<\/p>\n

Sustenance: Red Bull, Mountain Dew, Domino’s<\/p>\n

Value: priceless<\/p>\n

Edit:<\/strong> updated the link to the boiler plate code I’ll be using. All code and assets contained are released public domain, see the link for more information.<\/p>","time":"April 21st, 2014 7:07 pm","title":"another LD29 participatory announcement post"}
