I’m in!

Heya people. I’ve been reading all the nice “I’m in” posts and got a few interesting tips on tools I might want to try out in the future, so these are not completely useless… I’d best throw in my own as well.

First of all, a bit about myself. This is my first real attempt. I played a bit with the Evolution theme in LD25 ( I think ), wanting to try out RagePixel, and I ended up spending way too much time having fun with art and didn’t finish. However, I am not new to making games. I’ve been programming for over 10 years and I am currently working in the games industry. In spite of that, there is something really nice about getting to do your own thing on the side, particularly fun little prototypes for jams.

I’m likely going to be in the Dare, unless my boyfriend really likes the theme and is up for helping me, in which case I will submit it for the Jam. I intend to post a updates about my progress as I go along. I probably won’t have time to work on this the full weekend, so my goal is to just finish something fun and learn how to estimate time better.

Here’s my list of (likely) tools:

Engine: Unity. Using C#, maybe NGUI as well

Graphics: Inkscape and Gimp. Maybe Blender if I decide to go with anything 3D.

Sound: Audacity. Looking into random generators for this.

I look forward to playing all of your games!
