I’m in.

Going to go with:
C++/Cocos2d-x (probably a poor idea, but I need experience in it)
Gimp
Tiled, if there are tiles.

Guess that’s about it. Hopefully I don’t fail as completely as last time.

Challenges that might be faced:
I’m going to a party on the Saturday night, which I fear will be all-you-can-drink. I may have to moderate myself, but if I don’t … well, we’ll see.
Also, my new ISP is apparently going to call me around 1pm and babble to me in Japanese, which will probably be an awful experience. But hey, anything to save a few yen.
