Ludum Dare First Timer

This will be my first time doing Ludum Dare.  I am still not 100% guaranteed on doing this as I have to make sure that my wife is okay taking care of our son for two days! O_o

I am relatively new to programming.  I haven’t done any college course work but I have done Udacity and Coursera classes as well as purchased some Python books.  I am surely capable of making a game but the time constraint will be the most difficult part.

I will be using Python, Pygame, probably Pyxel Edit, and maybe Tiled.

The most difficult thing for me to do is harness my ideas on a small scale.  I think BIG and then I don’t end up accomplishing much.  For LD, I want to think small and refine to something cool.

Here goes!

I will definitely read over the documentation. I’ve never packaged anything before, so hopefully I can figure this out. It doesn’t look like it would be too hard for a small game.

I’m in the same boat mate, totally new to programming and using Python, I literally know the bare basics! Mainly using it as an excuse to learn 😉 Good luck!
