This is my first Ludum Dare, but I’ve competed in smaller ones before.<\/p>\n

Main language will be Ruby, since it’s just so sweet. OpenGL\u00a0 2D gfx with Gosu (http:\/\/libgosu.org<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Gosu is available for Ruby and C++. Good stuff.<\/p>\n

On top of that I’ve worked on my own framework this summer called Chingu ( http:\/\/github.com\/ippa\/chingu\/tree\/master<\/a> ) which builds on Gosu.<\/p>\n

Chingu adds game states, easier input handling, animation, text and particle classes and a bunch of other useful stuff.<\/p>\n

Graphics: Inkscape and probably TileStudio ( http:\/\/tilestudio.sourceforge.net<\/a> ) for pixelart \/ animations.
\n Music: Reaper ( http:\/\/www.reaper.fm<\/a> ) – amazing DAW. And a bunch of VSTs on top of that.
\n Soundeffects: most likely http:\/\/www.freesound.org\/<\/a><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

I have no idea why I got doublespaces between some words. Tried editing with both latest firefox and latest IE and it behaved the same way :p.<\/p>","time":"August 28th, 2009 8:48 am","title":"My LD15 Setup"}
