Thought I’d post my tools in case I do enter:

Language/Libraries: Java (Possibly using some LWJGL features, unlikely)

IDE: Eclipse

Pre-existing Code: My core code for loading, storing and double buffering images in Java (EDIT: Scrap this, I shall rewrite a new more efficient piece of  code during the compo!)

Graphics: Paint.NET/GIMP

Sound Effects/Music:  Audacity

I believe I can safely say without a doubt that I severely underestimated LD’s capability to give a guy a headache. Neglecting the theme and trying to force the theme to fit a pre-existing game idea has been a huge mistake, one that will most likely see me not enter or enter something that has almost no gameplay and fails to match the theme in the slightest.

At any rate it has been pretty damn fun and will prepare me for next time.

Here is the one and only screenshot I have taken of pretty much nothing:

Goodluck to all the guys who actually had decent ideas!

This will be my second LD and hopefully far more successful than my first.

After scrapping my game three hours before closing time last time around and cobbling something together in an hour I have learnt my lesson… I hope.

Tools:

Language: Java

Libraries: No extras

IDE: Eclipse

Graphics: Paint.NET, GIMP

Sound: Audacity

Base Code: I may use my Base Code if I fell like it, if I do I’ll link the download before the comp

Other: Lessons learnt from past failures

I hope I get to spend some serious time coding if work doesn’t get in the way, other than that, Good Luck to everyone

Once again I will be participating with a limited amount of time over the weekend. Once again I will probably cobble together something in the last remaining hours that resembles a game like so many others in the compo. Once again I will be using:

Language – Java

Graphics – GIMP

IDE – Eclipse

Sound – hahahaha naaaah…

I hope to speak to lots of you guys in the IRC and hope that you all manage to submit. Good luck!

I decided I wanted to submit this time around as I feel I have a unique idea for the theme, however, I have a very limited amount of time left.

My question to you guys is, should I continue and maybe submit a very small entry just to show off my theme idea? Is it worth it?

I’m interested to know your views!

Finally finished, and while I am far from proud of the end product (barely a game) I am reasonably happy with my take on the theme. Feel free to check it out and try to stop Kim Jong Un from firing his big rockets, or don't, it's up to you.

Hope you get a laugh out of it.
