This will be my first Ludum Dare. I have some experience from three past Global Game Jams, but this time I\u2019ll be doing it by myself, and hopefully I\u2019ll complete the project as well as the other three times. My tools of the trade:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Netbeans 7 and g++ on Ubuntu 12.04 (yes, I\u2019m somewhat eccentric)<\/li>\n<li>Gimp<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/2007\/12\/13\/sfxr-sound-effects-for-all\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"SFXR\">sfxr,<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.earslap.com\/projectslab\/otomata\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Otomata\">Otomata<\/a> , <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bfxr.net\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"BFXR\">BFXR<\/a> and my trusty Epiphone + Fender Mustang\u00a0 to hack some music and SFX.<\/li>\n<li>An epson scanner to get whatever I can scribe on paper to disk.<\/li>\n<li>Mingw32 for Linux, so I don\u2019t have to dual boot to build binaries for those using Windows.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sfml-dev.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"SFML 2.0\">SFML 2.0<\/a> (I\u2019m doing this game prototype to consolidate my skills) C++ or plain C and <a href=\"http:\/\/code.google.com\/p\/chien2d\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Chien 2D\">Chien 2D<\/a>, an open source SDL 1.2 based library I developed long ago. The choice will depend on how much learning more about SFML will give me more difficulties, instead of benefits. I have some <a href=\"http:\/\/chienloco.com\/wp\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Chien Loco Dev\">base SFML code that I wrote on my recent dev blog<\/a> that I plan to reuse.<\/li>\n<li>I might have some crazy idea to use some library that I din\u2019t remember to cite here, but those are most likely to be publicly available for a long time.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/code.google.com\/p\/stt\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"STT\">Simple time lapse tools<\/a>, to capture my desktop during the JAM.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>My skills are mostly related to programming, so hopefully I\u2019ll come across a good idea to polish it in under 48 hours and cross compile it for Windows.<\/p>","time":"April 15th, 2013 9:28 pm","title":"Chien Loco is In For the 1st Time","title_was_empty":false}
