Right. This is my second Ludum Dare I will participating in, and I think I will be ready this time. Last time I did this, I was ill-prepared, didn’t know what I was doing, and made a pretty crappy game with no time to make many sounds, or do a proper ending like I wanted to. It was a simple game, too, but I didn’t realize how time consuming it was. My note to all new-comers: Make a game where you can get the best time spent per gameplay\/fun level ratio. Really. It’s important that you make your game fun.<\/p>\n

Anyway… Wanted to do this one in Java and Eclipse, but I think I still have a ways to go (maybe next LD) before I can make anything decent in Java. So, you want to know what I’ll be using, right?<\/p>\n

Language: GML<\/p>\n

IDE: GameMaker 8 Pro<\/p>\n

Sound: Audacity<\/p>\n

Graphics: GIMP<\/p>\n

Just remember, it’s important to have fun. That’s the point of all this, right? Good luck!<\/p>","time":"April 18th, 2012 4:18 pm","title":"I\u2019m In! Again!"}
