This marks the 2nd year of my taking part. In fact, I started Ludum Dare on the 16th of December 2011, the same day that this one ends.<br \/>\n I knew how to code before I entered LD, but I&#8217;d never put it into practice. That day, I decided I was going to make it my hobby.<br \/>\n 2 years later, I&#8217;ve held a job in the games industry, I&#8217;ve worked on multiple apps. I started my own business and sold games of my own.<br \/>\n I&#8217;ve exhibited at conventions, with my own company.<br \/>\n I&#8217;ve made so many friends in the developer community. I found one of my best friends through streaming this LD.<br \/>\n To say that Ludum Dare has changed my life would be an understatement. At the time I first started back in 2011, I was on the verge of suicide.<br \/>\n Ludum Dare\u00a0<em>saved<\/em> my life. It helped me to discover a large part of who I am. It introduced me to so many great people in the industry.<br \/>\n If it wasn&#8217;t for Ludum Dare, I&#8217;d be a completely different person.<\/p>\n <p>2 years isn&#8217;t that much time to some people, but I find it hard to remember my life before I made games.<\/p>\n <p>Thank you to the people that organised this event.<br \/>\n Thank you to everybody here that takes part.<br \/>\n Thank you to every one of my friends that have helped me through so much these past few \u00a0years.<br \/>\n And good luck. You&#8217;ll do great.<\/p>\n <p>Never stop making games.<\/p>","time":"December 13th, 2013 5:48 pm","title":"I\u2019m in!"}
