The time is getting closer.

I’m in for the jam.

My setup as of late.

Lua and LÖVE.

This will be my third attempt. My previous game ran long and I couldn’t make it within the comp time constraints  Even with the jam’s extra day I failed to add proper game objectives, ending, music, or coordinate the theme but I haven’t given up. Just gotta stay focused and spend less time experimenting with game interface and inconsequential effects. I’m going to be using the same setup as LD25.

Good luck everyone. Can’t wait to see what you come up with.

It never works out. Never finish in time. So why do I keep doing this to myself? There’s a hope that if I just keep at it that eventually I’ll make something great. Right? I hope so.

No idea what I’m going to use. Either GM, Love2D, SDL. Most likely Game Maker Studio so I can make a web version. Though Love2D now has a web plugin for chrome.

• Step 1: Download LÖVELINESS from the chrome store.
• Step 2: Enable the “Native Client” flag in your browser: chrome://flags/
• Step 3: Tryout this Love2D Tetris game I made a while back: VZTetris
• Controls are the arrow keys and the enter key to restart.

Edit: Also, if you make a game with GM: Studio you can put it on mobile. Here’s my entry for LD25 on iPhone: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EyD4VuKkAQ8

Because why not. Sure some great games came out yesterday. They’ll still be there after this weekend is over. There’s only gonna be one LD29. So I am in for the solo comp. Maybe one of these years I’ll actually finish.
