I’m in (raw webgl/webaudio Javascript pro)

Hi everyone,

I’m a developer living in Chicago, IL and I’m going to be streaming my entire Ludum Dare development process at

http://twitch.tv/kanesteven

I will begin streaming at the competition start and the schedule beyond will likely depend on when I sleep (you know, nightowl stuff).

 

My stack:

Chrome browser

Node.js / browserify for asset building and webserver

Windows 8 (I’m a *nix developer 99% of the time so I might do some idiotic stuff)

VIM

 

My Plan:

Loosely inspired by the ongoing “Handmade Hero” project

https://www.youtube.com/user/handmadeheroarchive and http://twitch.tv/handmade_hero

I’m going to provide a walk through of the complete development process for building a simple 2d game using the browser as a run-time.  This means that I will not be using any libraries at all and will instead teach you to use the WebGL API, WebAudio API, networking, and basics of node.js/browserify.  If you’re interested in any of these things stop by.  I live and breathe these technologies in my everyday coding and we can have an interesting conversation.

Hope to see you and best of luck to all the participants.

Steve
