Hi All,

Yet Another First Time Post.

Java developer who’s done a little C OpenGL (yes, C).  I’m hoping for a spectacular failure this year as this is the very first Game Jam I’ve done.
I’m thinking about doing a strategy game using key based menu options similar to Dwarf Fortress, but showing the menu options on the screen near what they do.

To prep for Ludum, I’m going to practice a bit with Slik and then try out my own personal Jam (using a few spare hours a night after work).

Here’s what I’ll be using:

Language: Java
Library: Slick
Art: PyxelEdit
Audio: sfxr most likely

Questions:

Does anyone use recording software for Jams?  If so, what do you use?  For Livestreaming I think I’m going to use twitch.tv

Poll: Which do you use?

– Coffee
– Tea
– Energy Drinks
– My own special blend 😉
