I hope everything is going well for everyone so far; I\u2019ve been coding like mad so far, and there\u2019s still a lot more to go! I\u2019d like to share my game idea as well as my recent progress:<\/p>\n<p>Static is a game about chaos. Starting with a television screen full of static, the player uses different buttons on the remote to pause, fast-forward, rewind, and color different sections of the screen. With random static generating constantly, the player must choose when to pause which sections in order to create their masterpiece. This is a sandbox game with no particular goal other than exploring ideas, creativity, and the evolution of form from randomness.<\/p>\n<p>So far, I\u2019ve finally gotten the static to work with libGDX, and by lowering the rate of change, I\u2019ve gotten the frame rate up to a consistent 30 FPS from 5. <img alt=\":D\" class=\"wp-smiley\" src=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-includes\/images\/smilies\/icon_biggrin.gif\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Also,here\u2019s my breakfast of champions that got me started:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/2012\/08\/25\/introducing-static\/breakfast2-2\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-165169\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-165169\" height=\"275\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/Breakfast2-300x179.jpg\" width=\"461\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>It was delicious!!!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/2012\/08\/25\/introducing-static\/breakfast1-4\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-165163\"><img alt=\"\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-165163\" height=\"275\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/Breakfast1-300x179.jpg\" width=\"461\"\/><\/a><\/p>","time":"August 25th, 2012 10:28 am","title":"Introducing: Static"}
