My birthday is the 25th of August. I’ll be 18 and as per the family tradition I will be at a casino so I may not have time to finish something before the compo ends. I will try my best to get something done at the hotel and work until the final second when I get back. No guarantee that I can get something submitted but I will finish my game so I don’t feel left out.
Pyxel Edit is a pixel art/tileset editor I put up an early version of before the last LD. It was rushed and pretty damn broken in many ways but people still seemed to find it useful.
All the positive feedback I got made me want to fix it so I decided to take the version down to do it right. I have been working on it since then, rewriting a big part of the code base and adding a lot of features. There’s now also a site for the project at pyxeledit.com where you can download it.
It’s made in Adobe AIR so it runs on Win and Mac, not Linux, sorry. (I have been told it runs in WINE though)
There is also a captive runtime version at the site if you don’t want to install AIR.
I’d love to hear what you think, and if you have any suggestions for features or anything else (maybe I can add it before the next LD!).

Today the winners of the hack-a-jam were announced. I got the award ‘Game That Makes You Rage The Most’. I really liked the jam and I recommend it.

I just finished porting My Ludum Dare #35 (Originality) entry, Eternal Life, to Flash and yesterday I uploaded it to Kongregate…where it already has 329 plays!
What would happen if we could really live forever? Take a look at the answer with Death as your tour guide in this game made for Ludum Dare #35 (Originality) in 48 hours and converted to Flash as an exercise in learning the language.
