I’ve been looking forward to ld26, since I missed number 25.

This time I’m going to have a crack at something 3d in html5 – I’ve been looking at THREE.js which seems like it could be a great framework for prototyping 3d stuff. I can take this weekend to learn how to use it. Probably gonna do a warmup in the next few hours, to iron out any difficulties.

It wouldn’t be my first 3d entry, but the last one was done in XNA and not many people could be bothered to install several microsoft frameworks to get the game running. Hopefully more people will be able to access my LD26 entry – anybody with a modern browser at least. I’ll have to work to ensure I don’t make something too heavy for slightly older machines to handle.

My tools will be vim, THREE.js, sfxr, a sound library which I’ve not yet chosen, and PHP. I’m going to record a timelapse with good old chronolapse.

I’m hoping for the theme “Ancient Ruins” because then I can do an “exploring the temple” game with traps and stuff.

Also, the game must feature a rolling ball that you have to escape from.
