I have made a library / engine / framework (don’t know what I can call it) and I don’t know if I can use it for this Ludum dare, I have heard recently that you have to post this kind of stuff one week before Ludum dare but I didn’t know that.

Could anyone just check through this and post their thoughts in the comments. Would it be called cheating if I used it?

The reason I’m doing this is because my skills at AI and Sound is not good, and I don’t want to spend half ludum dare trying to figure out it.

Note! It’s NOT finished.

Tools:

Java

Eclipse

Paint.net

Pickle

SFXR / BFXR

Maybe lmms

I will be using my own Framework I created!

Note: I might change some things to the Framework during LD, I will probably take care off some bugs too.

Could any comment their opinion in the comments about the “WALL” textures, not the “v” textures or anything else Thank You! : )

I thought first that you had to post your entry before the time runs out, you don’t want to know how much I stressed out because i couldn’t get my .Jar to run in time.

I had to make a slight  adjustment to be able to run the game, you have to put the res folder next to the .Jar. Damn paths

But here’s my game

If you rate and comment to my game I will definitely rate and comment on your game, tomorrow! I have to go to sleep now! (I start school in four hours :)).

Post your game in the comments and I will play your game(Rate and comment) if you have both rated and comment on my game!

I would just like to inform that under LD 27 I encountered a bug with collision, I could not get it to work. So after 2 hours I asked in the Ludum dare IRC if I could search for information about it and someone replied that I could do any type of research. I knew a good source about collision and I used that information in the game, here is the video:

It’s from The Cherno, for those who don’t know who he is.

He is a great java game programming teacher on youtube.

Here is his Ludum dare entry:

Hi,

I was planning to create a 2D game with LWJGL for LD. I know my way around OpenGL and everything but I haven’t been able to create a tile system with VBO’s, has anyone done it and / or could you give me any tips for doing it. ? Thanks for any answers.

With modern OpenGL I mean not using glBegin(), glEnd(), glTranslatef();

In other news here’s a link to a forum post about faster rendering in OpenGL with VBO’s, something you should really look in to. Here’s the link : http://www.java-gaming.org/index.php?topic=28209.0

This will be my second Ludumdare, last time it went were well! But this time I will start from scratch, because last time I used a framework.

I will be using :

Java

Paint.net

Pickle

SFXR / BFXR

I need ideas how to create simple music, I have a keyboard but I don’t know how to start and which program…

Mine is deadmau5.

Please share your favorite music,

Man, couldn’t get anything to work this ld. I had bug after bug, I did stuff for hours that I later scraped. So this was not the most efficient ld for sure! But, I managed to create this bear that my friend say directly when he saw it: “PEDOBEAR”. So I failed on creating a bear too…

Congrats to all you that managed to create a game, and I will see you next time!

I’m going to join this Ludumdare after a failure last time.

This time I’m going to use Java + libgdx, and trying to understand Box2D.

For sound I’m going to use SFXR and SunVox.

For graphics I’m using Paint.net and Pickle.

I’m maybe going to use Tiled.

GL!
