5th time’s the charm!

I am super excited about Ludum Dare as usual!  This will be my fifth time participating.  Today I discovered the joy of streaming my coding process on Twitch.tv.  Thanks to everyone who watched – I had like 12 viewers at one point.  I will definitely be broadcasting during the competition this weekend.  Having people watch me helped me to stay on task a lot longer than I would normally have been able to.

My stack this time around will include:

Language: Haxe

Framework: NME with HaxeFlixel, most likely targeting Flash

Editor: Vim with plugins Vaxe and Ctrlp

Version control: Git

OS: Windows 7 with Cygwin

Graphics: Paint.net

Audio: Sfxr, Autotracker

And my obligatory workstation picture:

setup

The hardware consists of a recently on sale purchased 1080p monitor hooked up to a Thinkpad T410.  So far this setup has rocked.

Currently the programming is still my strongest area, while my graphics are okay and my audio production quality is bad.  I’m hoping to someday master all three!

I’ll post my starting Haxe project later this week.

Good luck to everyone!
