I am fully prepared to make a kickass game next weekend !

It will be my fourth participation already, and unlike last time, I’m going for the compo and not the jam. I also plan on posting more regularly than usual, and hang around the IRC channel. I will probably also post more updates on Google+ (encircle me and tell me you want to be in my LD circle) or twitter. I will surely be doing a timelapse (even though I need to switch computers at some point during the weekend), and if you want music recommendations, you can see what I am listening to on my last.fm page.

As for the tools I’ll be using, I want to keep options open before the theme is announced, and could end up going 2D or 3D :

• 2D : Python with Pyglet/Cocos2D
• 3D : Python with Panda3D
• Graphics tools : Gimp, Blender, Pixexix (which can be used with Wine under Linux, by the way)
• Audio tools : Ardour, ZynAddSubFx, LMMS, sfxr, Midi keyboard, guitars, bass, drums…
• Programming tools : Trusty ol’Emacs

As usual I’ll strive for a cross-platform release right off the bat. I hope my experience with packaging issues will finally start to pay off. Also, I’m based in Belgium: I have seen at least 2 people mentionning the same thing, and I know at least another one. Maybe we could arrange a meetup place for future compos ? Cheers and good luck to everyone !
