This will be my first attempt. Really, I should have tried to prepare more ahead of time but found myself slacking off a bit too much this week. Not expecting to complete it since the plan is to learn OpenGL as I go.

Tools:

Programming Language: Python

Python Libraries: Pyglet, possibly pygame, pyOpenGL, python-bulletML

IDE: Geany

Graphics and Music: I will be making badly drawn sprites in Paint.NET possibly and recording awful sound effects if I end up having enough time to try to do that.

Fiddling around with OpenGL trying to get Vertex Buffer Objects working with Textures inside pyglet.

Yeah, figuring this out was something I should have done before the competition.

Anyway, the first attempt resulted in some weird duplication effect when I tried to rotate the camera… will have to spend a couple of hours tomorrow figuring the rest of this out. Again, I don’t expect to turn out a game by the end of the 48 hours, but maybe I’ll have figured out enough to have a little something running. Maybe. Possibly.

And now, off to bed.
