Hi all!<\/p>\n

My name\u2019s Camille and I\u2019m a 3D Developer from Australia. This will be my first time doing any game comp, let alone Ludum Dare. I usually have a bit of a problem with picking ideas that are too ambitious or require a lot of commitment, so I\u2019m unsure as to whether I\u2019ll get a \u201cplayable\u201d game in the time frame rather than just an intro to a longer game. In any case, I\u2019ll be very happy to get anything to show by the end of the weekend. This weekend I hope to get at least 10 hours of work done. Going to a LAN party as well where I\u2019ll be sitting in the corner making my game, must avoid temptation, wish me luck!<\/p>\n

My usual tool set:<\/p>\n

Engine:<\/strong> Unity<\/p>\n

Language:<\/strong> C#<\/p>\n

IDE:<\/strong> Visual Studio<\/p>\n

3D:<\/strong> Autodesk 3ds Max<\/p>\n

2D:<\/strong> Adobe Photoshop<\/p>\n

Audio:<\/strong> ?? Might be simple recordings + Audacity<\/p>\n

As much as I love the look of 2D games (pixel art in particular) I don\u2019t have much experience in coding it, so this game will likely be 3D and first person due to the limited time available.<\/p>\n

As mentioned in my bio, things like immersion and mood are very important to me when I create something, here are some sci-fi examples I made:<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s see how this goes!<\/p>","time":"August 19th, 2014 7:29 pm","title":"First time","title_was_empty":false}
