I spent the day “working” on my\u00a0warm-up\u00a0MiniLD32<\/a>. \u00a0I have the general design done, it’s a sort of gopher smash on the head game, except you are on a float throwing beads and\u00a0doubloons\u00a0at people in the crowd instead on hitting them on the head. \u00a0I was going to use Orthello2D<\/a> with Unity but after some hair pulling figure out it hasn’t been update to 3.5. \u00a0Then, I started figuring out how 2D Toolkit<\/a> worked, but it dawned on me an hour or so in that I couldn’t use that in a Ludum Dare because I can’t share all the code. \u00a0So, then I started floundering around trying to get some basic things working a la from scratch. \u00a0After Google-ing some problem I ended up watching 3 hours of YouTube Unity tutorials<\/a>. \u00a0So, a most successful\u00a0warm-up\u00a0so far, as long as you think of warm-ups as making all the mistakes you can’t afford to during the actual Ludum Dare. \u00a0I’m headed to bed now, but I could<\/em> still have something playable by the end of the day\u00a0tomorrow, stress on the could.<\/p>\n
