Having participated 2 LDs so far, I decided to give it another shot. So… I’m in for this weekend’s LD compo! This time, however, I’m going to give myself a little bit of challenge. Instead of my usual java setup, I’m going to try to work with C++(or maybe C, depending on game complexity) and SDL.<\/p>\n

Here’s my toolset for this weekend:<\/p>\n

Language: C\/C++
\n Engine: SDL2
\n IDE: VIM
\n Sounds: sfxr, Audacity
\n Music: autotracker + free samples available to everyone
\n Graphics: GIMP, Inkscape, SynTex (https:\/\/github.com\/mxgmn\/SynTex)<\/p>\n

Despite working on a Linux box, I’ll be able to cross-compile for windows systems, too! I’ve got a really neat setup for doing this on my archlinux system using MinGW toolchain.<\/p>","time":"August 25th, 2016 1:58 am","title":"I\u2019m in for a challenge!"}
