I guess I’m in after all!
So, I didn’t think I would have time to do Ludum Dare this weekend, but I ended up starting anyway.
I’m making a game called Red Rover… it’s about a robot planet explorer. You can pick up rocks to get points, explore the planet, etc. That’s all I want to say about the plot for now. I’m using Python + Pygame (again)… but I think I will fare a bit better than I did last time.
At this point I have the level/terrain/movement code all done as well as most of the graphics!

Yet to do:
Caption/Score display
Title screen
Music
Some secret things I can’t talk about 
Hopefully I’ll make it!
