First LD
Hi all.
This is my first LD. Hopefully I can get enough time out of these 48 hours to make something playable.
Using C++ & SDL, No premade frameworks.
Got a newborn who needs me too, so time is short.
OK, well, back to Code::Blocks.

So, I have all my game mechanics implemented. Need to make some game-content now.
But it’s beyond bed-time now. My son is asleep, I need to take advantage of that time to rest.
I hope to get things finished up in time.
Well, I finished the code, the audio, and five levels. I wanted to make more levels, but I’m beyond tired and I shouldn’t lose any more sleep than I already have. This has been a fun experience. And it was good to participate in a game compo again after 3 years. (This is my first LD though. Hopefully not the last.)
I learned a lot doing this LD. I taught myself SDL ( at least enough to make the game) I came up with interesting algorithms for getting my screen data into the game. I developed several tools for the project, and learned some nifty things about Code::Blocks and the settings.
Overall this has been a great time. I hope that you enjoy playing the game. I know it’s nothing “grand” but hopefully someone out there has at least a minimal 😉 amount of fun with it.
