I still have to get a new webcam, though, since I had been using the notebook&#8217;s one&#8230; I&#8217;m also thinking about posting a Flixel plugin I&#8217;ve written for recording a few frames from the screen to a data file and a C program I wrote to read that and write bitmaps. This is great to get footage from within the game! (I could simply record, but I didn&#8217;t find one tool to my liking&#8230;)<\/p>\n <p>Last time I focused on creating a fun and good looking game. Now, I want to make something more innovative (that means, no more platformers or shooters) and making a better using of the theme. That said, I refuse to drop the current quality of my games (though I must admit that the playability is tunned for myself =X), so I&#8217;ll have to find a way around that&#8230; Using a whole day for polishing (and level creation) may be overkill, but it really pays off&#8230;<\/p>\n <p>I&#8217;ll get back soon with whatever I want to use during the compo. Until then and good luck for everyone!!<\/p>\n <p>Also, don&#8217;t forget to HAVE FUN!! <img src=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-includes\/images\/smilies\/simple-smile.png\" alt=\":)\" class=\"wp-smiley\" style=\"height: 1em; max-height: 1em;\" \/><\/p>","time":"April 12th, 2014 6:51 pm","title":"I\u2019m in!"}
