So, I submitted a \u201cnot-actually-demake-but-tries-to-be-retro-style<\/em>\u201d game. Took me actually less than 48h.<\/p>\n

http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/minild-50\/?action=preview&uid=28932<\/a><\/p>\n

Used: Eclipse with JDK7, GIMP, sfxr.<\/em><\/p>\n

Why did I do this? When I heard about LD, I thought that only \u201cpros\u201d can do a game in 48h. I wanted to take part in December compo, but I had uni stuff to do. However, now I took part in MiniLD and\u2026 I\u2019m fascinated.<\/strong> I created a game, simple, but playable (buggy ;d). Even with sounds (I forget about it too often). What\u2019s more, now I have something worth<\/strong> to put into my portfolio (no matter which place I get) ;p. No matter what you create, you train both skills and creativity. (<\/strong>Still I think, I should practice more, by comparing myself to others [very bad].)<\/p>\n

(Stuff in bold <\/strong>is about motivation for readers ;p).<\/p>\n

What next? Maybe, I\u2019ll port this to JavaME\/Android.<\/p>\n
