Hello Everyone,<\/p>\n

This is my first time entering a game jam of any kind. \u00a0I’m excited and a bit scared to be honest. \u00a0But I hope to accomplish something! \u00a0I’ll be using the following tools:<\/p>\n

1. ImpactJS. \u00a0I’ve been reading about this engine for the better part of a year, and since I *need* to learn an HTML 5 engine of some sort, this one seems like a good start. \u00a0It is also the 2nd biggest risk to me finishing, because I’ve never used this engine before.<\/p>\n

2. Illustrator and Photoshop CS5. \u00a0I’m more of a Vector artist at heart, because I can’t make the pixels go right.<\/p>\n

3. Audacity. \u00a0I’ve recently started using this tool, and I can make it make some noises.
\n The first biggest risk to me accomplishing something is my tendency to “Depth-First” whatever feature\/bug I’m working on, and end up missing the forest for one spectacular tree. \u00a0It’s been useful at times in the past, but sucks when assembling prototypes. \u00a0Game Jams should be a good way to develop my “Breadth-First” skills.<\/p>\n

4. Added a new Tool, I’m using BFXR as well. \u00a0I still don’t know what I’m going to do for music generation…<\/p>\n
