I would like to say: “I’m In”<\/p>\n

I have used primarily XNA for Ludum Dare, \u00a0since it’s no longer supported I decided to look into Unity 2D. I have messed around with it a bit since the last Dare I participated in, LD28 I think? Anyways, I see the power in Unity and want to learn more, I just haven’t had much motivation to make an entire game from start to finish. That’s why I decided to use Unity 2D for this Ludum Dare.<\/p>\n

My tools will be:<\/p>\n

Tools:<\/strong> Unity with Visual Studio 2013<\/p>\n

Art:<\/strong> Either Gimp or Inkscape depends on how I feel this weekend<\/p>\n

Sound\/Music:<\/strong> Audacity, SFXR, and since I suck at writing music I will probably find some music generator for that.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

My goal is to finish my game within the first 24 hours, then spend the rest of the time making it look nice, sound nice, and bug free.(Since I have been horrible at this in my previous entries) I’m hoping Unity will save some time so this will be easier.<\/p>\n

Good Luck Everyone!<\/p>\n
