Can’t wait to do this again! This will be my second Ludum Dare, and hopefully I know a bit more about programming than the first time.

My first game was pretty basic, especially in terms of gameplay, mostly because I didn’t have a clue what I was doing in Flixel. I was fairly happy with the art, but I definitely want to do better with it this time. I’m an artist, so I knew that part would be easier than the code.  I haven’t decided yet if I’m going to go with painted raster art, vector cell-shading, or a combination of the two. I really like the fully-painted look, but it’s a pain to animate the sprites because its hard to do rigging.

I’d like it this time if I can manage to create something that has at least a little more “game” in it. All I really managed the first time was a guy walking around shooting bullets at enemies. I’m still a fairly novice programmer, but I’m better than I was, so I’m excited to see what happens.

Code: Flixel/Flashdevelop

Art: Photoshop for raster, Flash for vector
