Components are dumb
I’m in, thanks to my lovely wife of a gazillion years who suggested that I enter and make her proud.
Tools and libraries are likely to consist of:
- Eclipse: http://www.eclipse.org/
- libgdx: http://code.google.com/p/libgdx/
- Artemis: http://gamadu.com/artemis/
- Paint.NET: http://www.getpaint.net/
- Bfxr: http://www.bfxr.net/
…and the most important tools of all, an A5 notebook, pen and a large helping of obstinacy.
As for the title of this post, I should explain that I’m almost certainly using an Entity System and I’m just reminding myself not to put any logic in the components. Heck, my first job was as a FORTRAN 77 programmer so if I could handle COMMON blocks then I’m sure that I can make my components dumb.
Best of luck to everyone who enters. I’m looking forward to playing your crazy, inventive, out-there interpretations of whatever theme is announced.
