I also plan on posting more regularly than usual, and hang around the IRC channel. I will probably also post more updates on <a title=\"Google+ profile\" href=\"https:\/\/plus.google.com\/u\/0\/108851245849840401364\" target=\"_blank\">Google+<\/a> (encircle me and tell me you want to be in my LD circle) or <a title=\"Twitter page\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/b_gorissen\" target=\"_blank\">twitter<\/a>. 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 <a title=\"last.fm profile\" href=\"http:\/\/www.last.fm\/user\/Grungi_Ankhfire\" target=\"_blank\">last.fm<\/a> page.<\/p>\n <p>As for the tools I&#8217;ll be using, I want to keep options open before the theme is announced, and could end up going 2D or 3D :<\/p>\n <ul>\n <li><strong>2D : <\/strong>Python with <a title=\"Pyglet homepage\" href=\"http:\/\/www.pyglet.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">Pyglet<\/a>\/<a title=\"Cocos2D homepage\" href=\"http:\/\/cocos2d.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">Cocos2D<\/a><\/li>\n <li><strong>3D :<\/strong> Python with <a title=\"Panda3D homepage\" href=\"http:\/\/www.panda3d.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">Panda3D<\/a><\/li>\n <li><strong>Graphics tools :<\/strong> Gimp, Blender, <a title=\"Pixexix homepage\" href=\"http:\/\/pixexix.sophiehoulden.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Pixexix<\/a> (which can be used with Wine under Linux, by the way)<\/li>\n <li><strong>Audio tools :<\/strong> Ardour, <a title=\"ZynAddSubFx project page\" href=\"http:\/\/zynaddsubfx.sourceforge.net\/\" target=\"_blank\">ZynAddSubFx<\/a>, LMMS, sfxr, Midi keyboard, guitars, bass, drums&#8230;<\/li>\n <li><strong>Programming tools :<\/strong> Trusty ol&#8217;Emacs<\/li>\n <\/ul>\n <p>As usual I&#8217;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&#8217;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 !<\/p>","time":"April 17th, 2012 5:08 am","title":"In for the 10th anniversary !"}
