The retro kit

I will be using an eclectic mix of modern and older tech.

Pre-contest updates:

ms paint, gimp, scanner, writing instruments, paper, iconfu.com, pixlr.com

flex, java, mysql, html

google for syntax as needed (fully annotated in my source)

audacity, anvil, sfxr, musagi, algomusic, soundhelix

I will be making an online game of some kind.  I probably wont be able to commit as much time as some people, but hopefully my game will make up for it with oh-so-crappy charm.  I will try to adhere strictly to 100% from scratch (i.e. no frameworks, pre-made game maker engine stuff), so my game may look “bad” haha.  we’ll see.. if i can be creative enough, it should still be a worthwhile play. I’m trying not to make this a reputation-on-the-line thing, (I know what some might assume I could do with 100% focus), just something for fun to see what happens.

You ROCK. I’m super impressed with your intention to do it “pure”.

Best of luck, I can’t wait to see what you make.
