I sometimes get called upon at 3\/4 am to deal with technical issues for a friend’s gaming community in the US. \u00a0Downed website here, some crashed\u00a0game servers there, it’s all in the game, and the vampire hours are fine.<\/span><\/p>\n

This Ludum however, they got DDoS. hard. \u00a0Got called both nights. And you know\u00a0what? I \/enjoyed\/ getting my sleep cut in half <\/strong>and losing several hours to the roll of the dice. That’s right. \u00a0Ludum made me a masochist. \u00a0It felt like true initiation<\/strong> into the Ludum Dare, and I probably need help.<\/p>\n

On another note, streaming was so much fun!<\/strong> Just having a handful of friends around made the experience so much more pleasant and entertaining. Plus the instant feedback helped a lot. Thanks to everyone\u00a0(esp Liam and Flaterectomy!) who sat there whispering words of encouragement!<\/p>\n

Love Your Pets<\/a> went horribly wrong in some areas, mainly control scheme, levels and polish, but I think the graphics turned out great, and I’ll be able to salvage a great post compo edition<\/strong> out of it.<\/p>\n

Anyway, time to play some of your games<\/a>!<\/p>","time":"August 26th, 2013 2:12 am","title":"Ludum made me a masochist!"}
