I’m back in for LD26, and this time I’m going\u00a0international<\/em>. That is to say, I’ll be spending the duration of the competition out of the country. I’ll be teaming up with my partner in game-development-crime in our fortified bunker in Buffalo, NY (well, close to it). Second game jam, first one as part of a team.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Dev tools: C#, XNA, .NET, Whiteboards, Dry Erase markers<\/p>\n

Eye tools: Photoshop, probably (Wanyo’s call since he’s in charge of that)<\/p>\n

Ear tools: That retro sfx sound generator I used last time (the name escapes me), Goldwave, Shure Beta 58A mic (or something like that) and an ART Pre-amp tube (to record XLR input)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Probably not going to be livestreaming since I won’t be at home, but I’ll be visiting the dev site this weekend and that’ll give me a better idea of what I’ll be working with.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I’m really excited for this LD. I expect game dev is a lot like Resident Evil 6: pretty fun by yourself, but way more fun if you’ve got a partner to do it with, especially when they can handle the parts you’re not very good at and vice-versa.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

But without the QTEs.<\/p>","time":"April 11th, 2013 7:13 am","title":"Returning for LD26"}
