I\u2019m accepting PoV\u2019s October Challenge: Make a game, sell 1 copy<\/a>. I\u2019m going to extend and polish Stacker, my Ludum Dare 12 entry<\/a>. It is the most complete game and best of all my Ludum Dare entries. I also have some ideas about how to make it more interesting than the current scheme of moving the goal line higher and higher each level. <\/p>\n

Serendipitously, Unity 3.0 was released last week. I\u2019ve been eyeing using it in future projects for a few weeks now, and have actually done several tutorials and watched a bunch of videos online. I was particularly impressed with the Visual Studio integration. If I had known about that earlier, I would have tried it much sooner. In the past, engines, frameworks and languages have caused me much gnashing of my teeth because their IDE was so painful.
