After more than three hours of exam writing, and almost double spent on studying for it, I am now ready to declare my entry into <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/\">Ludum Dare 22<\/a>! I&#8217;ve been away far too long, with my entries for the <a href=\"http:\/\/madeoftree.net\/blog\/beebop_the_island_hopper\">17th<\/a> and the <a href=\"http:\/\/madeoftree.net\/blog\/my_minions\">20th<\/a> dare being almost a century away, the ancient game making creature will once again move into action. We&#8217;ll just hope the game won&#8217;t be ancient as well&#8230;<\/p>\n <p>Leaving that behind us I can now focus on what to actually <em>use<\/em>. I wanted to try some new language and some new environment but that seems lika a really bad idea. So I will stick to what I know:<\/p>\n <p><a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/treeman\/7days\">My fast prototyping library<\/a> consisting of old C++ on top of the nice <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sfml-dev.org\/\">SFML<\/a> engine.<br \/>\n <a href=\"http:\/\/www.drpetter.se\/project_sfxr.html\">sfxr<\/a>, or maybe the newer <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bfxr.net\/\">bfxr<\/a> for sound effects. It&#8217;s seriously great, give it a try!<br \/>\n Probably <a href=\"http:\/\/mtpaint.sourceforge.net\/\">mtpaint<\/a> for some nice pixelated graphics. I would like to try out <a href=\"http:\/\/inkscape.org\/\">inkscape<\/a> for some vector based graphics but I might skip it this time.<\/p>\n <p><a href=\"http:\/\/lmms.sourceforge.net\/\">LMMS<\/a> for music making. This I tried to use a long time ago&#8230; And failed miserably. It&#8217;ll be a fun, fun weekend!<br \/>\n And finally my little <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/treeman\/Treebot\">timelapse recording hack<\/a> for linux. Be careful if you want to try it, it will most likely blow up in your face and take your computer down with it. Handle with care.<\/p>\n <p>And of course here&#8217;s where I&#8217;ll be spending most of my waking hours:<\/p>\n <p><img src=\"http:\/\/madeoftree.net\/media\/images\/LD_setup.JPG\" alt=\"Ludum Dare 22 setup\" \/><br \/>\n I&#8217;m planning on getting some new food during all this, but I&#8217;m not entirely sure yet.<\/p>","time":"December 14th, 2011 1:34 am","title":"Here I Come"}
