Hey all, I’m a AAA dude gone solo and taking on all the dev roles.

I’m a long time Ludum Dare lurker, but I’m excited to finally be able to participate now that I’m learning to code.

Yesterday I took a trial run at making something from scratch and put this together in ~8 hours of work:

(not a full game, just arrow keys to drive around and bump into things)

To be clear, I don’t plan on USING any of that in the event, it’s just the first non-tutorial thing I’ve tried coding, and was a great way to get a couple 1-2 hour long stumbling confusion fests out of the way (like, oh hey, THAT’S what an else-if statement is for!)

I’ll be using…

Code:

• Unity
• UnityScript / JavaScript
• IDE: MonoDevelop
• Free shader code libraries (“Free MatCap Shaders”)

Assets:

• Graphics: I won’t lie… a version of Lightwave 5 that I’ve used literally since 1999 (aint broken, aint fixin it!), Modo, Photoshop
• Sound and music: GarageBand and Audacity (It’s my understanding that using loops and audio from GarageBand is allowed, so, running with that I’m sure)

I’m on Twitter at @MrLeePerry… I’ll probably vine some updates, but not live feed my work (too hard with doing art on PC and Unity on Mac)
