Long-time developer, Ludum Dare first timer. I’m trying to get back into game development after a long break, and this compo seemed like a great way to realize how out of practice I am. I’m using MOAI because that’s what I was last evaluating. If I tried Haxe/NME first, that’s probably what I’d be using now. With my perfectionism, limited experience with the framework, bad attitude, poor habits, low expectations and … uh … what was I saying? Well never mind that, I accept this challenge. With a fervor. And a hat. And inside the hat is additional fervor. With cheese. And inside the cheese is another hat, an impractically small hat, also made of cheese and probably additional fervor. I’m revealing how little I know about fervor, cheese and hats, aren’t I.
