…altough I have barely done serious game developing in the last 3 years (my last ludum dare was LD23), am using outdated software, and only just now realized the LD was this weekend instead of the next one! Thankfully I get more done under pressure. Silver lining!

So basically this time I’m just entering too see what I’m still capable off, with zero expectations. I’ll probably get some practise this week. Cue the training montage music!!!

Software I will use:

GameMaker (8.0 (omgikrlikewtf0_oDx))

GIMP for graphics

sfxr for sound effects

famitracker for music if I got the time for it

Hello all,

Having spent most of my time the last few Ludum Dares making technically complicated things, I decided this time to try something a little more artistic.  After seeing the amazing (and winner of the humor category last time) Billy McMath Solves Problems, I decided it would be fun to try something simpler and in a more storytelling style.

I’ve whipped up a starting code base that uses Django and MithrilJS to allow a simple binary choose-your-own-adventure style app.  Each story node has a blob of text, an illustration, and a voiceover, as well as two choices.  Clicking on either will take you to another story node and the story diverges the further down you go in the tree.  You can find the code here:

https://github.com/dvcolgan/binarystory

Tools of the trade this time will basically be the Django admin interface for putting in text, probably Audacity for editing voiceovers, and some kind of graphics program for doing crappy illustrations.  I’ll be enlisting the help of several friends to help with the story.

I’m hoping this will be a pretty chill Ludum Dare and as usual I’ll try to stream as much of the 72 hours as I can at http://twitch.tv/dvcolgan.

Party!

I’m excited to be participating in my first Game Jam, Ludum Dare 33!

Really looking forward to joining in on our first Ludem Dare! We’re going to be documenting our panic, incompetence and total mental and physical collapse through an audio log podcast as well.

There’s some great looking themes, very exiting.

We’ll be using Game maker, Logic X, GIMP, MS Paint, pens, pencils and copious amounts of coffee and beer to create a terrible mess and have a lot of fun (and maybe learn something about making games along the way).

Thanks for having us!

After some concerns about scheduling, I’m in.

Tools are same as always:

Unity (2D off course, are you crazy???)

Photoshop CS6

Illustrator CS6 (for logos and graphics work)

Garageband (maybe use my guitar and bass for a soundtrack this time)

Anyways, Good Luck and Have Fun all!!!

So, what, over two years ago? Since then I’ve got a lot better at making games. Hopefully I’ll make an interesting on this weekend. My tools:

Unity (Asset store tools: InControl, Behavior Designer, A*, MasterAudio, ParticlePlayground and Prototype are all subject to being used, but not guaranteed)

Photoshop CS6

Reaper

Cannot decide if I’m going to do it in 2D or not

First time here,

I code and draw some pixel art.

Out of this I’d like to be part of a community.

Thanks for reading!

Powering up… portals, on-line!

That’s right, I’m back and ready to dev my lil’ heart out.

Here’s what I’ll be using:

Construct2 – Game creation!

LSDJ and a GameBoy emulator – Chiptunes!

Aseprite and Pyxel Edit – Ultimate pixel art tag team!

SFXR – Emergency sound effect generator! (Sometimes LSDJ sound effect crafting is too time consuming)

itch.io – Spectacular game hosting web-zone!

Old-ish laptop running Windows 7 and Zowie mouse – Computation and control!

Exclamation points – You gotta have ’em!

Wish me luck! Hopefully I can make something pretty cool for my fifth compo entry.

Dear Ludumdarian,

Today I’m writing you, not to tell you from all my exitment that I will be in the 33th Ludum Dare as I was about to do, but instead to tell you that I won’t sadly be able to do so.

My beloved MSI laptop went to sleep last night and will never wake again, the motherboard passed out for no apparent reason (too much travel ? too much heat ? we may never know) and as ready I was to jam from three different places (home, train, then home bis), the odds have decided that I shouldn’t. I will not be able to find and re-install a new computer from then, therefore will have to watch you and stay behind for this LD. My disappointment (and my wallet’s one too) finds no bounds…

Either way, good luck to you all, and mostly, have fun ! =)

I practice my crappy spriting skillz.

I am entering Ludum Dare this time around as what is essentially my birthday party for myself, since that is this Thursday. I’ll be streaming the whole thing at http://www.twitch.tv/zeritum, and you are welcome to join me so you can watch me slowly create whatever crap comes out of this and shout violently at my ineptitude.

I will be using Java (with LWJGL) for the code, Photoshop for the “art” (I can’t draw, will avoid if possible :p ) and FL Studio for the music. Hoping for a good theme that I can get along with, but I’ll of course be trying my best for any theme that is chosen

Good luck to you all!

Hi everybody! I’ve been at grad school and doing the Global Game Jam the past few years, but I’m going to try to get something out this weekend for LD33. I’ve been working in Unreal Engine lately, so I’ll probably stick with that. Best of luck game peanut butter and jammers!

jk I’m in.

Tools: Unity, Krita, Blender, FL Studio, bfxr

Have a great time everyone!

Well… I made wallpaper too 😀 Click to open 1080p image.

All right, after years of excuses (some valid) I am all in for LD!

I figure if you are gonna do a thing, do it right! So, it’s just me and the Compo! I plan on using this as an opportunity to binge on candy, pizza and soda. Oh, and make a cool game (But mostly candy)!

Tools will be

MacBook Pro (my ‘puter),
Unity (my ‘ngine),
Visual Studio Code (eye dee eee),
Ase Sprite (two dee),
Cheetah3d (tree dee),
Qubicle (more tree dee!),
Logic Pro X (tunes)

This is my first Ludum Dare….. wait, let me rephrase. This is my first game competition ever! I hope to have an amazing time and I can’t wait to play all of the awesome games that people are going to make.

#LD33

As a student Game Designer with a wooden PC I’ll be part of the LD33. I have already made some games with game jams and I have submitted 2 games during the LD31 with a team. This time, I’m alone and with an horrible PC ready to be a second challenge for me!

Engine : Construct 2

Graph : Paint (seriously… I can’t run photoshop)

Sound : I’ll think about it later

Some games I have made in the last game jam :
