This will be my third LD, and hopefully my first successful one. As long as I can get through Google Code Jam (which just happens to start at about the same time as LD) quickly, I should be good.<\/p>\n

Tools I’ll be using:<\/p>\n

<\/strong>Language:\u00a0<\/strong>Java<\/p>\n

IDE:<\/strong> Eclipse<\/p>\n

Platform:<\/strong> I’m up in the air between whether or not I should target Android or PC first. (suggestions?)<\/p>\n

Sound:<\/b>\u00a0Bfxr and Audacity<\/p>\n

Graphics:<\/strong>\u00a0Paint.net<\/p>\n

Livestream:<\/strong>\u00a0http:\/\/www.twitch.tv\/pwnedu46<\/a>\u00a0(XSplit broadcaster)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Edit: OBS runs much better on my computer, and it’s FREEEEEEEEE, so it looks like I’ll be using that instead.<\/p>","time":"April 15th, 2013 1:55 pm","title":"I\u2019m in!"}
