First Entry: Cue the Montage Music
April 11th, 2012 6:35 pmHello everyone,
I am truly excited and looking forward to my first entry in the LD competition. I discovered Ludum Dare after hearing about it from Notch and watching several hours of his Minicraft submission for LD22. I was truly impressed by his entry and even more impressed by all the other entries.
It inspired me to dust off my old programming skills and rediscover a passion I had forgotten I once had. I immediately became hooked and have been programming ever since. Thanks to a friend of mine, I discovered Flixel, and have spent the last three months trying to learn it inside and out. I feel like I am prepared enough for next weekend to at least finish something, even if it isn’t great. I’ll consider it a success if I can make anything that’s halfway playable.
As seems to be the custom, here’s what’s in my utility belt:
Coding: Adobe Flash Builder 4.6
Framework: Flixel
Graphics: Adobe Photoshop
Sound: sfxr
I wish everyone good luck, and thank you so much!
