My very first Ludum Dare! :)
Hi there!
It seems to be what a lot of people do, write here what programmes they are going to use, so here I go.
I’m an unexperienced game-developer, I’ve learned some Java and Gml (gamemaker language), I’m going to use gamemaker, it’s the language/engine/programme I’ve got the most experience in and it’ll probarly be the fastest way for me to work! :). I’m really pumped to do this, hoping it’ll improve my skills in general and make better games too :).
Btw! I’d love some tips on working in short time and just game development in general! 
What I’ll use:
- Language/Game-Engine: Gamemaker studio.
- “Art”(I’m crap at it :3): Gimp and/or Paint.net and a little bit of gamemaker’s sprite editor.
- Sound: SFXR.
- Music (If I get the time): FL-studio.
Good luck to all! Mainly the other first-timers!

Have a good scope and avoid feature creep. Of course, part of the fun is the spontaneity of the whole shebang, but you still have only 48 hours. In short, try to keep it reasonable; if you start small and make good time, then you have a bit more breathing room to branch out a bit.
