Ludum time!<\/p>\n <p>This is going to be my third time participating in the compo, and I am excited. My past two attempts were &#8220;complete&#8221;, but neither game was particularly fun. This time that will change. I WILL make a fun game, and I WILL succeed at time management!!!<\/p>\n <p>I just completed my warm up weekend game, and everything is looking peachy. The game is called &#8220;Eye of Ra&#8221;, and it helped me test all of my various tools to make sure they were working. I am most proud of the music, seeing as my past two games had no sound at all. I have been practicing with Famitracker, and I think the background music sounds great, even though it is a short loop. This warm up also let me work on animated sprites, which I have never been very good at. All in all, this warmup game which I made in about 6 hours is already better than my past two entries. I am excited!
