LD18 didn’t went for me as planned as I was really busy that week-end and couldn’t finish at all. I didn’t get further than the initial idea.

But there is another chance for me in less than two hours and I feel confident that I will do some actual coding this time. I’m going to be joining the compo. Although there will probably be no Subway sandwich food photo this time as I stocked up on snacks so I don’t even need to leave the house.

My tools of choice:

• Compiler / IDE: FreePascal 2.4.3 / Lazarus 0.9.29
• Framework: Self-made on top of SDL, SDL_mixer, SDL_ttf and Vampyre Imaging
• Basecode: Download here (3.2 MB)
• Graphics: Cinema 4D, Blender, GIMP, Pixelmator, Paint and my cheap A5 graphics tablet and maybe even Sculptris depending on the theme
• Sound: SFXR/CFXR, Microphone and Voice Candy
• Music: GarageBand
• Timelapse: Chronolapse under Windows, my little screenshot command-line tool + Timelapse Assembler under Mac OS X

As promised, here is my desktop:

Most of the development will be done on the macbook, the PC connected to the large screen will be most likely used for checking out what others have done and having some music playing in the background. I love XBox 360 gamepads and consequently my entry will also be playable with this controller.

This time around I want to spice thing up a bit and I do something I’ve never done before. I will try to make a video each day where I’m gonna be talking about the progress I made and what I’m exactly planning to do. I made a dry run and here is the result: Link to my first VLog-thingy. Keep in mind that I’m not really good at making videos. Not yet anyways.
