The Plan (Harebrained Scheme) for Mini-LD

I’ve made my decision.

Unless the theme is something really, really interesting, I’m just going to ignore it and do something else instead.

Why not? After all, Mini-LD is just for fun!

That said, I’m more than likely going to ignore the theme.

Instead, I want to make a 2-day roguelike in under 100kB.

I will be using C, NCurses, Vim, and GCC.

I’m very excited about this.

   Is NCurses portable? I don’t mind, but windowsers will.

   No, it’s not. You have a good point.

   I think I might rethink the NCurses part of this.

   The roguelike thing I’m set on, I’m set on C, I’m set on Vim and GCC/Make.

   I’m not so dead-set on NCurses, I suppose.

   But I usually have these sorts of plans before a compo, and they either get abandoned, or, more often, mangled into something very different.

   Thanks for reminding me of that! I really do need to remember portability better! X-D

   Hey, I think PDCurses is what you’re looking for then.

   100kB is a lot
