I’m in – LD22

Hi. I’ve promised myself that I would join in the next time plenty of times now, but I have always found excuses, this time is for real!

I’m not a good programmer and I mostly have no idea what I’m doing, but I’ll try to put something together that at least can be mistaken for a game by a casual user. :)

 

I Haven’t decided in 100% what tools I’ll use, that will depend on the theme and the game I’ll build. But the tools/languages/libraries I’ll choose from are:

Java

Eclipse

Slick

or

Flash AS3

Flashdevelop

Flixel

(I’ve really never done anything real in AS3 or Flixel (except for a quick test game), I just checked it out this week, but this is a good time as any to learn it I guess)

or

C#

Visual Studio 2010

XNA

 

Other

Paint.net for “pretty” pictures

Musagi or famitracker for “music”

SFXR for sound (suprise!)

XNA doesn’t work on anything that isn’t Windows, and by that I mean it won’t work in Wine or Mono. In other words, SAY NO TO XNA (until there’s a version for not-Windows).
