Late to the party

Missed the first 24 hours, but I had real life to attend to.

    Credit where credit is due. I’m going to use:

  • Adobe Flash CS5.5 for the compo (buy it, support it for it to live! I guess not enough sales is one of the reasons why Adobe decided to discontinue further internal development for the Flash Player on mobile browsers)
  • Free FlashDevelop for my main coding IDE
  • Notepad++ for additional text/HTML stuff
  • Adobe Photoshop for additional image manip, (sorry GIMP, I love you, you’re awesome, but you’re not good enough for my needs)
  • FL Studio (formerly known as Fruity Loops) for my main sounds (bought the license, Free updates forever, very reasonably priced with the various price tiers, one of the best purchases I made in my life!)
  • Some free MIDI files on the web for additional music
  • The FOSS project Audacity for additional sound edits
  • Opera Browser for testing (Nordic Barbarian winter technology ftw!)
  • Code from scratch + learned tricks from the masters, little guys & interwebs

Not sure yet if I’m submitting for the main compo (depends if I can finish it on time), otherwise will submit for the Jam rules.

Let’s get it on!

rendering muzak…

Ding!

Muzak done. Horrible clipping, but it’ll have to do now.

Nothing like an external deadline to make yourself productive.

Sometimes you just need to get off your ass.

Idunnow if I’ll be able to finish this game by tomorrow for the game jam category, but it’s something I will.

Oft-times the problem with making games is coming up with an interesting idea. I have mine which I’ve borrowed and am trying to remix. The interesting day is that inspiration is is arriving in bits and pieces that will hopefully make this thing an interesting one.

I think I have something to say and I hope you guys enjoy when it’s done. Congratulations to all who finished.

*off to lunch*

danke

Okay, this is as good an excuse to learn Away3D + Stage3D as any.

Yep, looks like I definitely won’t make tomorrow’s deadline given the above.

On the other hand, this’ll be more productive leveling up skillset-wise.

This fun exercise has given me inspiration & quite a few ideas…

Game on!
