I’m in, with presents!

I’m in for my second time!

I have no idea what I’m going to make, but I am forcing myself to improve on what I did last time. I like the game concept that I had from last LD, and I am pleased with it. It was a good first try at the challenge. However, it was lacking in the aesthetics department. This time I’m going to fix that.

As far as my tools go:

  • Love2d (Lua)
  • Inkscape
  • Audacity (basic sound editing)
  • Max MSP (hopefully), sound generation.
  • Logic (possibly)
  • SunVox (possibly)
  • MuseScore (possibly)
  • Pixitracker (possibly)

To warm up, I created a loveless game. Not even going to post a screenshot. Because I felt so horrible about that, within the last week I’ve been creating lots of small snippets of code, and playing around with new techniques. I’ve decided that they might be a valuable resource, so I’ll post a couple that aren’t super embarrassing. Both of them have some sort of instruction in the comments. Neither of these libraries have a very clean interface, so sorry about that.

First is a delaunay triangle background generator. It looks like this:

Delaunay trianglization

 

Second is an instrument class. It doesn’t deserve a screenshot. It doesn’t make anything look pretty.

 

On one final note, I also plan on posting progress here more often than last time.

Good luck, see you on IRC!
