I hadn't thought about LD for a while and when it crossed my mind, I realized it was 10 days away. I took that as a sign to at least try this time. I did a game for LD48 and attempted again at 51 or something but failed in that one. So this is going to be really low pressure and if I don't make it it's alright. I'll be using the Eclipse IDE to write in Java and it's built in libraries via the Eclipse Temurin OpenJDK to construct the engine because that's how I role. I know it's kinda unconventional but it works for me. And I'm too unmotivated to learn SDL or any other C/C++ related frameworks right now. (I don't like using engines that much) I don't really know what I'll use for sound or anything, maybe GarageBand bc I'm on Mac this time around. If I manage to keep up in my studies this weekend and finish a game I will be very impressed with myself. Good luck!

ALSO: a question regarding the COMPO: Would it be against the rules for me and a friend to work solo on our own projects but in the same room and conversing about our progress and ideas? Or do we literally have to be like alone? lol
