Well, I’m back a couple hours later than I thought I might be (go figure..)   But, I did snag one great picture of copious amounts of dead thing grilling over a backyard fire at a friend’s house.

Anyway, I’m back and checking out all the posts and happenings I missed while most of you were still coding away today!  Gotta get back on the coding horse if I’m gonna pull this thing off tomorrow, still a lot to do!

mmmm.. breakfast sandwich and OJ.  Good morning ludum dare 11.

My girlfriend said she’d make me a breakfast sandwich as long as I post it to the LD blog, so how could I refuse?  It was gooooood too. 

In other news, I got about 6 hours of sleep and am working on getting my basic character functional in a code test so I can post something game related soon. 

That’s my working title currently…

Well, it’s about 3am here EST and I think I’ve gotta shuffle off to bed. I’ve spent the past 4 or so hours working in art programs on concept art and haven’t written a lick of code. I’ve basically been listening to Deep Mix / Moscow Radio which I’ve found very inspirational for this theme whilst I’ve drawn animated bitmaps to the beat.

I started out in Corel Draw and then ended up in Tile Studio. I got inspired while I was in Corel Draw and then took some of the concepts over to Tile Studio to flesh out further in tile / bitmap format. I came up with my main character animation sprite sets and got a nice test animation that I actually don’t know how to dump out to an animated gif to share. Too tired to figure that out right now, so nothing visual to share yet. Now I just need to keep fleshing out the scope of the game / gameplay and see if I can code something usable in time! Phew..!

I’ve enjoyed seeing everyone’s posts and chats in the IRC channel. I hope you are all having a good time! What an adventure.
