For my first Ludum Dare activities, I come to `Contstraints’.  I decided to make the control scheme restriction mirror something in the real world where it makes sense to control with numbers.  Such as flame throwers.  What’s a better use of a flame thrower than carrying you aloft in a wicker basket?  Nothing, that’s what.  So now we have Pyloon, the Python Ballooning Sim.  Most of the code is working, and the art is about how good I can make it (this was actually the hardest constraint — using seven discrete colors!), so I will now focus on trying to put together music and sound.  This will be hard as I do not have a mic.
