Mini-LD #28 – A Change of Tools for a Change of Heart
So…
I’ve hit a wall with C++/Ogre. It has just. Stopped. Being. Fun.
So, here’s what I’ll use instead:
- Language: ActionScript 3
- Compiler: Flex 4.5
- IDE: Geany
- Graphics: Inkscape
- Sounds: sfxr (AS3 port) + media.io (for MP3 conversion)
- Music: LMMS (If I get to it)
C++ is killing me. Large projects are killing me. I’ve had enough.
My Mini-LD game will be the start of a new kind of work for me. I will move toward making games that are deliberately simple. I want to make games that can be completed within one month. And then, well, complete them within one month.
I’m hoping that I can accomplish that.
My first project will be the Mini-LD game. I will continue to work on it until it is finished. I’m hoping to make either a top-down shooter or an RPG. We’ll see what I can fit into the theme.
Peace, love, and the simplest possible solution,
— Mr. Dude
You gotta keep it fun!
Good luck with your entry!
