This will be my first Ludum-Dare and I’m going to hopefully hit the ground running and make something for the compo.
Tools are:
Engine: Unity3D
Code: MonoDevelop
Graphics: Photoshop and Illustrator
Music: Sfxer and Audacity
Good luck everyone.
I’m in for LD31! Tools TBD, but I want it to work in the browser.
Wish me luck!
Just before the theme gets announced!
I’m doing it. Using mostly Game Maker: Studio and any other tool that might be useful for the occasion.
Wish me luck!
I’m in, unless snowman wins. As almost always – using Unity3D, my mouth and my killer drawing skills to make another “game” that makes your eyes bleed.
Code / Design: Unity
Sound Design: Audacity / Whatever works
Graphics: Graphics Gale & Photoshop
Good luck everyone
Have decided to go with Monkey X for this one, as I’ve been looking for an opportunity to use it for quite a while.
Also picked up Ignition X and R.U.B.E. a couple of days ago, but I’ve done nothing more than install them and look at a handful of demos, so whether I use then will very much depend on the theme and my game design.
Will definitely be using Vim, GIMP and Bfxr, and quite possibly Blender, Inkscape, Audacity and SunVOX, depending on the game and how much time, if any, I have left over for adding nice things on Sunday night.
Now all we need is a good theme. Please God don’t let it be that bloody snowman.
Good luck everyone!
Development Environment:
GM Studio Professional

Chowing down on a bag of Scooby-Doo fruit snacks and about to make a game on the entire screen.
Can’t talk now, I got a game to make!
ITS NOT SNOWMAN!!!
SNOWMAN CAN SUCK IT!
#NOMAN WINS!!!

Expected the snowman, had a good idea.
Single screen UE4 here I come.
I’ve just realised that somewhat coincidentally my idea for LD30 would work well with the “Entire Game on One Screen” theme for LD31. Oh well I’ll just have to come up with something new.
hmmmmm. Well there goes all my ideas about platformers right out the window.
I expect to see all the source code as well! 😛 
I really wish it was snowman but, come on, let’s do what we know and what we do best. Good luck to all.
luck to all!!!!!!!
Once again not suuuuuper enthused about the theme, but here we go. I’m in again, and with the same infection I had the last two attempts! Ain’t immune systems grand?
Let’s do this. All bundled up for the winter. Drinking hot choco—I mean, soda out the wazoo.
I’ll be working in Unity (free), and this time not using any starting codebase. We’re workin’ from scratch, people! The old-fashioned way! But considering I’ve been in the middle of hella coding for Sunshine, I think my gears are running pretty smoothly.
This theme is definitely very weak because it’s far too open for interpretation. “One Screen” is an incredibly vague idea.
The thing that comes to my mind is “hey. this is a perfectly valid excuse to do a neat pacman clone just to say you’ve done that in javascript even if it’s not really unique.” I’m trying to think of ways I can innovate or do something neat with one screen, or if there are any cool game ideas that I have. My plan is thus: try cloning PacMan in JavaScript, see what you learn in that exercise, deconstruct it, and see what you can do with that knowledge. Do Space Invaders, do Pong, do basic things so that I can learn how to manipulate physical entities using code.
The most unique idea that’s occurring to me and the one I keep thinking about is an Odyssey simulator. Give the player an interface that looks like an old-timey TV and give them the various screen shades – football, tennis, etc. – and let them play all sorts of different kinds of games using that ‘one screen’ with all the screen shades. I think that might be cute??
that’s the theme
Is anyone streaming and using stencyl if so email me your link at montanacaleb@gmail.com so i can watch.
