I decided on a whim to do this this weekend (my first Ludum Dare) and then I figured I wasn’t doing anything next week so why not. I’m a student with a background (Read: Diploma) in Game Programming and I figure this’ll be a good way to warm up for the next semester if nothing else.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Really though I’m just trying to justify the Whimsy that is the actual reason for my doing this.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Here is the plan:<\/p>\n

– Microsoft Visual Studio<\/p>\n

– C++<\/p>\n

– Any sound I can produce using whatever freeware is convenient<\/p>\n

– Whichever free Engine I can pick out in the next hour<\/p>\n

– Paint.net and paint.exe for graphics<\/p>\n

– A complete disregard for the theme (in terms of mechanics)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I also may stream it if I can get that working<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Wish me luck<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

EDIT: I’m going to be streaming at Livestream.com\/kaosubaloo<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Probably.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If livestream sops being terrible long enough for me to login anyway.<\/p>","time":"December 15th, 2011 9:46 pm","title":"Ludum-GET"}
