Yah, it&#8217;s not that different. Well it is for me, cause I&#8217;ve been so used to Flash. I did work on JavaScript games in the past\u00a0but it&#8217;s been a very long time.<\/p>\n <p>So the tool I&#8217;ll be using:<\/p>\n <ul>\n <li>Brackets as text editor<\/li>\n <li>Flash CC only as an art tool (I&#8217;m not making a Flash game this time!)<\/li>\n <li>Garage band, cfxr<\/li>\n <li>And this new weird tool I just created yesterday called YOUPI.<\/li>\n <\/ul>\n <p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n <p>So wait, what&#8217;s with YOUPI? So here&#8217;s the story. I got bored yesterday, so I decided to produce some tool that would be useful for Ludum Dare. So I made this thing called YOUPI, which is essentially YouTube looper, or you can call it an &#8220;animated GIF with sound&#8221; creator. It&#8217;s also open source. I thought maybe I could use it to add cut scenes or looping background in a game.<\/p>\n <p>The result&#8230; is really stupid&#8230; so delightfully stupid&#8230; that I felt compelled to share it. So far, I&#8217;m not sure if it&#8217;s actually\u00a0useful for anything, but it&#8217;s kinda fun to use. Perhaps if you make a time-lapse video and want to share a\u00a0part of it, you can use the tool and you won&#8217;t have to generate a gif. Or perhaps you want to loop some music in a javascript game. Rather than program it, you just put YOUPI\u00a0somewhere on the page and you get the image as a bonus&#8230; Geez really? What is this tool useful for?<\/p>\n <p>Anyway, I thought I&#8217;d use the LD31 keynote to show what you can do with YOUPI:<br \/>\n <a title=\"YOUPI\" href=\"http:\/\/jacklehamster.github.io\/youpi\/?videoID=9OjIIhm8ZVk&amp;start=42.3&amp;end=50.5\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/jacklehamster.github.io\/youpi\/?videoID=9OjIIhm8ZVk&amp;start=42.3&amp;end=50.5<\/a><\/p>\n <p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n <p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n \n <p>Tags: <a href=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/tag\/youpi\/\" rel=\"tag\">YOUPI<\/a><\/p>","time":"December 5th, 2014 9:46 am","title":"YOUPI, I\u2019m in!"}
