LD 38

I'm in

This is my first LD. I wanted to participate in one for a while, and I finally decided to do one. I've already made some small experiments, but yet have to finish a game (beside really simple ones). We'll see if I'll make it !

Most of the themes provided gave me good inspiration, this one is no exception. I'll need to stay reasonable though, I am not a pro, yet.

I'm so glad it's not a photoshop competition

I clearly won't win thanks to my image editing skills.

Programming wise, I'm doing OK. Forgot to add a camera, so I might have to hack some stuff so you can actually see your character moving around. Still missing a lot to be a real game, but hey, at least I'm doing this.

Other posted about their tools, mines are : - GIMP - SDL - C++

I'll need a way to create some simple sounds though.

It was fun to participate

Although I couldn't work as much as I wanted on my game (lack of preparation, and other things that popped up), I won't be publishing it because it's far from being a real game, closer to a simple engine, I enjoyed participating. It was nice to see what I could do in a short amount of time. If the next compo is in august, I'll probably be able to participate again and do even better (AKA publish something) !

Stay strong everyone who's still in. You can do it !
