Representing Africa

I have come across Ludum Dare via the LibClan website.  It looks like an interesting concept and hell I’ve decided to give it a try.  Especially since it looks like there are no other Africans and that is just wrong.

I am still very new to this though and I have a lot to learn to be ready for the August competition.  For instance I am not even sure whether a blog post like this is alright.  Well I guess it’s trial and error from here.

Things are still a bit confusing and I haven’t figured out yet on which day the competition starts in August.  In the meantime though it’s all about getting ready.  Such as getting my toolset ready and knowing it well.  Especially ClanLib.  It’s a great library but I have only started working with it about a week ago and I will have to know it well come competition time.  As for a graphics toolset and something to create music with, well I’ll still have to decide on that.

It’s exciting though and I’ll try and keep this blog updated as to how things are going and which tools I’ve decided upon and why.

    Welcome, dude!

    ld can be a little confusing to figure out at first, for sure. Looking about the wiki can clear most things up, I think.
