Were I to submit an entry this weekend, it would be my first Ludum Dare. It would use most or all of the following tools:<\/p>\n

Code:
\n Python\/Pygame
\n PGU<\/a>
\n vim<\/p>\n

Visuals:
\n GIMP
\n pen and paper
\n possibly some procedural content as well<\/p>\n

Sound:
\n sfxr
\n ZynSubAddFX<\/a>
\n Hydrogen<\/a>
\n Audacity<\/p>\n

Having only written very small (no more than 500 LOC) tools in Python, I’m far more comfortable with C++, but I figure it’d be easier to avoid cross platform hassle this way as I’ll be developing on Arch and occasionally Ubuntu. Plus, with PyWeek 11 starting up this weekend as well, I figure I could jump straight into it from here.<\/p>\n

P. S. Despite the awkward name, if you haven’t tried ZynSubAddFX, you’re missing out. If I have time to add more than sound effects, it’ll come from this. I doubt I’ll have time to add Hydrogen into the mix, or require the services of Audacity, but I list them just in case.<\/p>","time":"August 18th, 2010 9:17 am","title":"No promises"}
