I&#8217;m not sure what I&#8217;m developing yet, but it&#8217;ll probably be 2D (I am not a modeler) and be in XNA. I have my coke and my Vimto, tomorrow I&#8217;m going to stock up on snacks etc. After voting on the themes I can see some I\u00a0defiantly\u00a0could develop games for and I want to do something either super serious or super silly. I&#8217;ve also looked at the warmup games and I&#8217;m very impressed with them, I don&#8217;t know how far I&#8217;ll get with my game though. I plan to work on all the mechanics which have to be added, then worry about music, and graphics because I think that&#8217;s where my time\u00a0management\u00a0will fail me. I thought about maybe streaming it as I do it, although I don&#8217;t think that would be interesting for most people so I&#8217;m going to probably use twitter and upload a screenshot every 1o-30mins so people can see how I&#8217;m getting on. What I&#8217;ll be using: XNA for the game, Photoshop\/Paint.NET for the graphics, I&#8217;m not sure about the sound yet I&#8217;m really not very good when it comes to sound, I&#8217;m doing research now on reddit and probably be testing and practicing before LD starts.<\/p>\n <p>All in all I&#8217;m looking forward to it.<\/p>","time":"December 14th, 2011 9:00 pm","title":"First Ludum Dare"}
