The difference was that I was way in over my head now that I see the pile of stuff I have yet to learn. I have missed stuff in java like recursion ( oh boy am I having fun with that one .. still trying to wrap my head around it), apparently I have to learn something called hasmaps from my java book and a ton more stuff. So I guess ludum dare 31 may be a no go now that I see I can&#8217;t even finish my java studies for this last week let alone start getting the hang of libgdx. I hate to miss all the fun but I will be observing the contenders and I will be taking notes lol.<\/p>\n <p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n <p>Best of luck to all the participants in this edition of ludum dare! I hope I can join you all on the next one!<\/p>","time":"November 26th, 2014 11:14 am","title":"I guess I am.. Scratch that last one"}
