I got an instant message from my wife on Friday night asking me to make dinner. I begged off, since it was the first day of Ludum Dare! Prompting her to respond:<\/p>\n

\u201cI thought you weren\u2019t doing Ludum Dare this time.\u201d<\/p>\n

So did I, I said; so did I. But it turns out it\u2019s completely impossible for me to be around during Ludum Dare, and know Ludum Dare is going on, and not participate. So even though ten seconds is about the amount of free time I had this weekend, I found a way to get a compo entry<\/a> assembled anyhow. Glad I did! It\u2019s always great fun. As an added bonus: apparently my enthusiasm was infectious enough that my wife decided she\u2019d enter the jam; she\u2019s working on her art assets right now.<\/p>","time":"August 25th, 2013 11:19 pm","title":"True story","title_was_empty":false}
