Did get a Ubuntu (Linux) Box built and working on getting a solid framework for Linux and iOS so I can do a 3 platform release next time.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Now its all done I am working on the next project work title  - Quantum Want.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Certainly influenced by my Ludum Dare #21 entry.  Don't wanna give away too much but it will be more off the wall humor and hand drawn art touched up digitally and music.  \r<br\/>\r<br\/>Contemplating raffling some of original art works for a low price ($5-15 dollars each + Postage) and maybe limit the larger pieces to people that have completed the game.  Figured it might be a nice way to connect and share a bit of the game with people in not just a physical form.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>:-)"}],"images":["ld21\/5609-b1c2972b057eadaf3b99259d7f55a039.jpg","ld21\/5609-37689ada272377e07a87bd560ee86c11.jpg","ld21\/5609-5eb46b30696a244917e261ddf9b1d407.jpg","ld21\/5609-532970ddbdcd36d7342ff3bcd398e327.jpg","ld21\/5609-8e9a7da97a3f413523af3d25c82cde96.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/s\/ea8r4bfq5kpo6if\/ludum_d21.zip?dl=0","text":"Windows"},{"url":"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/s\/ea8r4bfq5kpo6if\/ludum_d21.zip?dl=0","text":"OS\/X (untested)"},{"url":"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/s\/ea8r4bfq5kpo6if\/ludum_d21.zip?dl=0","text":"Linux (untested)"},{"url":"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/s\/ea8r4bfq5kpo6if\/ludum_d21.zip?dl=0","text":"Source"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"32311","g_author":"5609","g_event":"LD21","g_eventkey":"7","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"32341","g_title":"Escape - Forest 2012","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"70","g_commentcount":"16","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/62148\/5609-shot0.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/62148\/5609-shot1.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/62148\/5609-shot2.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/62148\/5609-shot3.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/62148\/5609-shot4.png-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"48 hour jam!, posted it, didn't realize I needed to do more, here is link to post.
