Why didn’t I think to try this earlier?
Definitely in! I’d heard of the LD competitions before, but for whatever reason assumed only the best of the best competed. I’m confident enough in my abilities to give it a try, and it will be my first competition and released project!
I’ll probably be using HTML5/Javascript for ease of distribution and my current obsession over it. If I need art I’ll be using GIMP, and sounds will be generated with either Audacity or sfxr. As for an IDE… I’ll probably spend tomorrow finding a better one. While I enjoy using HTML5/Javascript I have yet to get a “real” IDE. Still using Notepad at the moment. Oops.
Best of luck to everyone!

Sublime Text is sublime.

Welcome! I second sublime. Blazing fast and quick to pick up but there’s depth to it as well. Normally it’s risky to learn a new tool while jamming but sublime is probably an exception.
