EDIT: See there’s a lot of new comers in the declarations of intent. Here’s hoping we have a record number of entries! G’luck and please, treat the Jam as a safety net, aim for the compo!<\/p>\n

This would be a clever pun if I was going to use Flixel, but I’m not.<\/p>\n

After much humming and ha ha ha’ing. I’ve ditched my traditional C++ route for this LD48 and I’m going with Flex and FlashPunk.<\/p>\n

Graphics will be IGNORED as far as I possibly can, because I always get caught up early drawing terrible sprites that I end up not using anyway. Once I have a functional fun game that is submittable… graphics will commence.<\/p>\n

So here’s the obligatory list….<\/p>\n

OS: Ubuntu 10.10
\n IDE: VIM (Vi IMproved)
\n Language: Actionscript 3.0
\n Tools\/Libraries:\u00a0Adobe Flex OSS SDK 4.1 &\u00a0FlashPunk
\n Graphics Package : GIMP (& VIM for the extra masochism cherry)
\n Sounds Effects: Dunno, maybe \/dev\/urandom and VIM for even more self-flagellation<\/p>\n

Coffee, Diet Coke, Pizza and other junk likely included.<\/p>\n

No doubt a healthy dose of Guinea Pig intervention will also be involved.<\/p>\n

Lets get it on.<\/p>","time":"December 13th, 2010 3:19 pm","title":"Up and Atom"}
