Ladies and gentlemen, Welcome to Ludum Dare 17! Our first major compo of the futuristic year 2010! It’s been a big year for us so far, so lets keep that momentum going!

The theme will be announced shortly, see above. If this is your first Ludum Dare, I’ve prepared a handy little guide you can read. More details can be found on the wiki.

Keynote Address

Now to get you fired up for 48 hours of game making greatness, here’s Phil Hassey.

From all of us at Ludum Dare, good luck!

    In honor of the keynote speaker, the theme is ‘Goats’, even though it was never on the voting lists anywhere.

    Inspirational indeed! It’s past bedtime here in Sweden, but it’s going to be interesting to wake up tomorrow (today) and find out what the theme is. Hopefully my tax declaration won’t get in the way. It’s a bit like game development – when you’re almost done it turns out that you have most of it left…

    This is going to be amazing. Also was it just me, or was poor Cuzco missing a horn?

    Beautiful and poignant. Plus, a kick-ass belt buckle.

    That was both sweet and cheesy, like sharing a slice of delicious cheesecake with an adorable unicorn goat.

    [...] suggest that if you are interested in learning what Ludum Dare is all about, check out the keynote from Phil Hassey, it even has a goat! PoV has also written a handy guide to getting started [...]

    Where is that place, anyway? Living where other people go for holidays?

    Reminds me of the movie Existenz: all game developers are living in the countryside now…
