I’m super excited for ludum dare this weekend. This will be my second time participating.
I’ll be using actionscript, flashdevelop, flixel, bfxr, audacity, paint.net, internet explorer, Microsoft Windows 7, spotify, google chrome, musagi, dr racket, windows explorer, facebook, twitter, reddit, google, and allergy medicine.
Hope the theme is santorum!
This is going to be my first Ludum Dare, really excited to participate.
I will be using the following:
Language: Lua
Framework: LÖVE2D
Editor: Geany
Graphics: Gimp
Sound: as3sfxr
Thought I posted this earlier, turns out I saved as draft.
I am ready. I have an idea for each and every theme in round 5. I’ll share the list later, promise!
My noisy family is going to be in the next county for the weekend. My only school obligation is an exam that I have already studied for plenty. I am ready.
I… was going to write some really intense motivational stuff here, but I’ll save that for when the compo begins.
– Henry
Tools:
Programming: FlashDevelop as3
API: Flashpunk
Art: The GIMP
Sound: bfxr
Music: Whatever I can muster in Ableton Live Lite, if I have the time
Version control: GIT Bash
EDIT: I derped. Base code here.
It looks like I’ll be gone for about half of the time, but I’ll still try to make a game this weekend!
Here is what I’m using:
Good luck everyone!
It’s another ‘I’m in’ post. First time in LD and my coding’s a bit rusty, but I figure it’ll be worth trying this regardless.
Language: Java (still learning C# for use with Unity)
Framework: LWJGL (most likely)
IDE: Eclipse
Music: Sonar X1 Essential + 3 sound modules (2 Roland, 1 Yamaha) for sounds. May also use OpenMPT.
Sound: BFXR, aforementioned modules
Graphics: Paint.NET
Hope this turns out to be a good one!
Both ScorpionR95 and myself (King Kay) will be participating in our first ever Ludum Dare this weekend! Since there are two of us and we are both fairly inexperienced, we’re sticking to the Jam instead of the more hard-core Competition.
We’ll be using-
> Framework: Game Maker 8.1 Pro
> Language: GML (Game Maker Language)
> Graphics: MS Paint , MyPaint and GIMP
> Audio: Audacity, MSRecord, and LMMS
Looking forward to making a game with all you fine people! It’ll be an interesting learning experience, and also fun! And since this is our first time and all, we won’t be bothering with a time-lapse.
Good luck to all of you!
This is my first Ludum Dare!
I’m gonna try making something using the Blender game engine; I’ve been wanting to try it out for a while, so now is as good a time as any!
Tools:
Gameplay: Blender Game Engine, Python
Content Creation: Adobe Master Collection, MakeHuman(maybe), Suicidator(maybe)
I am in and I am ready for ludum dare 23 (which will be my second) with all of my tools working. I will make a timelapse of the process and livestream some parts. I am ready to make a game better than I did last time from everything that I learned.
Tools:
Both TLitten and myself will be working together in Ludum Dare 23. We’re both quite excited to be participating in our very first LD together. Back in LD22 I attempted to create an entry, but I couldn’t find the motivation or manage to scrape up an idea to make, but this time that’ll change!
Language: AS3
Framework: Home-made RPG/Tile Engine (source below)
Graphics: Photoshop
Audio: Adobe Soundbooth (for mastering), Sonar X1, Bfxr for sound effects
Good luck to everyone else!

I’m innnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn.
No clue what kind of game I’m gonna make, but it’s gonna be fun.
Language: ActionScript 3
Framework: none, except some of my personal utility libraries, and maybe the Tonfall generative audio library.
Sound effects and music: Ableton Live
I probably won’t do a livestream because I get all anxious and work really poorly when people are watching. I’ll try to post on the blog a few times though.
The only pre-compo works that will be in my submission is just setting up my environment and creating a shell for the game. This includes the splash screen, menu screen, level screen, and end/credit screen. They have no content in them; they are just empty shells to begin the competition with.
If this will be problem, just say so and I’ll start from scratch.
Source for the empty screen classes can be found Here.
UDPATE: Screw java webstart; I’m also having all sorts of last minute issues with my engine choice; gonna play it safe for my first LD48…
Language: Java (LWJGL + Slick2D + marteengine) GameMaker HTML5
IDE: Eclipse GameMaker IDE
Graphics: Inkscape + Gimp
Audio: Ardour + sfxr
Oh yeah, I’m in! This is my 4th consecutive LD! Woohoo! I am not prepared in the least! That’s the 4th consecutive time too! Anyways, I’m in! I expect I’ll be using Python/PyGame again… possibly also trying out PygCurses, depending on the theme. I’ll try to write a better post tomorrow when I’m less alseep, but until then: Good luck everyone!
/me is in!
Done the full thing once before. A couple of minis. Trying something new this time.
Language: HTML5 + CSS3 + JavaScript
Framework: craftyjs – crafty indeed! built-in gravity!
IDE: Eclipse+vim
SCM: git+trac+mylyn+jenkins+/me likes plus signs
Graphics: PaintBrush? GiMP?\
Audio: cfxr (assuming I have time)
Hosting: self
Time lapse: screencapture + iMovie
Coffee: black
Beer: stout
I’m innnn.
Going to use either:
– python with pyglet
– processing with my personal code library FireEngine: https://github.com/DomNomNom/Fire-Engine
gl hf :DD
if the theme is good, ill give this a shot. We’ll see. Will update with a livestream late saturday since I have to start a day late.
Edit:using flixel
I’m in! I’ll try to use Flixel + FlashDevelop + Emacs + Makefiles (game template in github)
Gfx with aseprite and music with sonar 6 le + korg m50
I’m in for this LD!!
I have two weeks learning Love2D and I plan to use all I learned to at least make something!!
Tools:
Programming: NotePad++ for working with Love2D-Lua
Graphics: GraphicsGale, Photoshop
Sounds:sfxr, audacity, don’t know what else
Happy 10 years and good luck everyone!
Alright, second time is a charm!
For some strange reason, I swore after the last Ludum Dare that I wouldn’t do the next one. Well, I’m sure showing myself! Now that I know how Ludum Dare is actually pronounced, how can I refuse? I’m out to use what I learned from my first Ludum Dare to make something fun, un-buggy, elegant, and focused!
~Gameplay!?: GameMaker 8.0
~Graphics!?: Photoshop
~Audio!?: sfxr, musagi?
Well, this dare is getting pretty close, and I still have a heap of things that need to be done before the dare. Most of it isn’t dare related (for instance, writing a paper on standardized testing, then reading a textbook to prepare for the AP exams), but that’s not because I’m at all prepared for the dare. I lost the code for my command line timelapse, want to ditch SFML (and don’t have it installed), and am midway into another project that I’m passionate about (but it’d be a shame to not participate! I haven’t made a game since the last LD).
Also, on a practical note, does anyone have any recommendations for a good platform for me to use? I’m looking for something that is free, OOP, and can display images and music. Bonus points if it’s web-based.
In any case, all my unpreparedness can only make this Ludum Dare more interesting…
