So, I’m in for the first time 
I will program the game in C++ and I’m going to base it on a little “engine” I’ve been working on 
It can be found here: http://www.host-a.net/u/Diventurer/Diventurer%27s%20Engine.zip
It is using SDL (+sdl_image and sdl_mixer), OpenGL, Windows and WinSock 2.2.
Psst, I think the theme is going to be kittens 
So yeah, I’m entering for the second time now. Last time in December was so much fun so I’m obviously entering again ^^
The LD22 game was kind of a failure, even though I guess it was kind of fun in its own way, lol.
I hope this game will turn out much better ^^
Language: C++
Tools: Visual Studio 2010, PhotoShop, Magix Music Maker and Bfxr
Libraries: SDL, SDL_image, SDL_ttf, SDL_mixer, openGL
I hope the theme will be resouce gathering
Good luck to you all

I’m in, fellow Ludum Darers!
This will be my third time. I’ll try to actually finish the game this time.
Language: C++
IDE: Visual Studio 2010
Libraries: SDL/SDL_image/SLD_mixer/SDL_ttf with freetype, OpenGL.
Graphics: PhotoShop CS5
Music: That python script which was posted on here last time.
Sound effects: Bfxr
Timelapse recorder: Chronolapse
Hello!
Last time it didn’t go so well, but this time things will hopefully change!
I’ll be writing the game in VC++, and I’ve written a small framework which I will use.
This is my base code (a library) which I call Ludum Dare FrameWork (LDFW): http://www.solidfiles.com/d/ece49afd6a/
For graphics, I’ll use PhotoShop. Then use that Python script that generates music to, well, make music.
I cannot remember the link, but it was on the frontpage this Easter I believe. Here’s a pastebin of the script just for your convenience: http://pastebin.com/Cv49bnkv
Good luck everyone!
Also; setup:
This is how it looks like so far.
You can also fight with the Navy! Which isn’t shown in this screenshot (obviously).
The game is about crushing villages/towns and the Navy.
I’ve now uploaded the game “Pirate Scum”.
It’s not really a great game, but it is quite enjoyable. I mean, for me at least.
What you do is basically collect treasure around the world, and every time you get one treasure box or destroy a town with your cannon, a Navy ship appears randomly.
There’s a highscore “system”, and you try to beat it with your highly encouraging words from your beloved captain.
I’m in!
Pizza’s in the owen ready to be eaten as the theme is announced!
Details of what I’ll use, if anyone cares
Language: C++
IDE: Visual Studio 2012 Express
Libraries: SDL with OpenGL and my own library ‘nocturne’ which I’ve been working on this week. (download src: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/32267636/nocturne.zip )
Graphics: Adobe Photoshop CS6
Music: I don’t know. I might use the well-known Python script (https://github.com/wibblymat/ld24/blob/master/autotracker.py) if I don’t have time to compose something.
Alright, good luck everyone!
