So the last few times I’ve tried to participate in the Ludum Dare (LD #23 & #24), or last years 7 Day FPS challenge for that matter, real life has done all within its power to derail my plans and force me to withdraw. Well this time come hell or high water im going to finish, (Insert inspirational music here) and to inspire me to continue working regardless of external interference i shall live stream the entire event for your entertainment and my potential ridicule! (End dramatic music)

Well now that I’ve gotten that out of my system we can get down to business. I intend to live stream both my practice in the week leading up to LD#26 and the entire event itself. It is my intention to start streaming no later than 9pm EST (GMT/UTC-4) and I hope to be live for at least 3 hours each night before the event. Come the day of LD#26 I will be live 2 hours before the event starts (8pm EST GMT/UTC-4) playing a game or two to unwind. If there are any changes i will be posting them to twitter so check there for updates.

For development tools i will be using all free and or open source software, most of which is listed here on the Ludum Dare site. Eclipse for code. (Java + LibGDX) Paint.NET for 2D art. (maybe Gimp as well) SFXR for sound effects. Musagi for some simple music.
