When I started I was doing slightly glorified programmer art and had at best a poor grasp of pygame. Just last LD I was trying things like music composition and 8-step walkcycles, and produced some good art (if I do say so myself). My programming abilities had much improved (still not perfect, never will be, but leaps and bounds better). This LD is very promising as I *might* try 3d. Not sure yet :\/ (better decide quickly, lol)<\/p>\n <p>If anyone else wants a good way to better their abilities in any way, do LD.<\/p>\n <p>Derailing myself a bit here, is anyone else participating on an FIRST FTC (or FRC) team? Just out of curiosity&#8230;<\/p>","time":"December 14th, 2012 3:39 pm","title":"I\u2019m in"}
