To get the programming juices flowing I decided to make a simple space shooter. I have little experience with java so a bit practice will certainly come in handy next weekend. While the game doesn’t have scoring or a win- (or lose-) situation it did help me get into java again.<\/p>\n

You can find the game here<\/a>. You control to ship with the left<\/em> and right<\/em> arrow keys and you can shoot with spacebar<\/em>. The objective is simply to destroy the enemy ships. Please let me know if you encounter any problems.<\/p>\n

Now for the actual Ludum dare next weekend. While I’m very excited to\u00a0participate\u00a0again, this being my second time, it’s going to leave me a wreck. I have to catch a plane the day before at 7 am, pickup at 4am. I’ll be home at around noon with Ludum starting 3 am the next night. I will do my best to make a nice little game.<\/p>\n

Oh and for the people who didn’t see my game last time, you can find it here:<\/p>\n

Oh Dear, I’ve Lost My Hat<\/a><\/p>\n

I ended 12th in Graphics but I don’t think I’ll get that again.<\/p>","time":"April 15th, 2012 8:32 am","title":"Warmup"}
