I realized 30 minutes ago that Ludum Dare is about to start, I am now giddy with excitement, though I have concerns about source code I look forward to participating in LD for my first time.
I will be using:
Stencyl
FL Studio
Inkscape
Best of luck to everyone.
I decided that I am making an action platformer where every 10 seconds you switch to a different character. It cycles through 4 characters which have different abilities. You will spend coins upgrading each character, but you must make sure to upgrade them evenly so that you are not vulnerable as an un-upgraded character.
Well I finished my first game for Ludum Dare and I am rather happy with it! I was scrambling to get it turned in with two minutes left, then it turns out that there is a one hour submission period afterwards that I didn’t know about. But oh well, I think it turned out well, besides the fact that I didn’t have time to make music. Here is a link to it: http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-27/?action=preview&uid=27278
I’ll be using Illustator, FL Studio, and Stencyl.

I finally fixed up my game well enough for it to be considered finished. Overall I like what it turned out to be, though it’s missing many things I had wanted to include. I lost a lot of working time on Saturday so I can’t complain too much. The biggest issue is that I once again did not have time for music. But oh well, enjoy! http://ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-32/?action=preview&uid=27278
I definitely think this year was my best ludum dare. I actually managed to get music done in time for the first time in the compo! I’m happy with the game itself as well, worked with procedurally generating maps for the first time. Can’t wait for all of the submissions to roll in!

I've made a lot of progress today. The system item and wound systems are functional now I just need to make a game to use them in! This is definitely my most ambitious LD so far. The player will be forced to make decisions to sacrifice items or sustain wounds which will lead to heavy debuffs once they sustain enough.
As we move into the final hours of the game jam I need a few more ratings on my game. I have an HTML5 build and windows build so if anyone has the time to try it out, it would be greatly appreciated! This was a fun jam, we didn't have time to take any music for the game but overall I'm very happy with how it came out!
