The Monday Post: Challenge Yourself

So, while I have 2 weeks off from school (but not my job), I've decided to spend that time relaxing. Just kidding. I've realized that I want to keep my skills sharp. So I'm going to enter myself into the Ludum Dare that starts this Friday. What the hell is this? In a nutshell (or In a Nuts Hell, depending on where you put the spaces):

• 48 hours to complete, from scratch a game
• Theme is finalized on last day. You must make the game in the theme
• You must work on your own, in the time limit. That means design, code, and *gasp* art
• If you have pre-existing files that jump start you, you have to share them
• You share your game and source code at the end.
• After the comp is done, 3 weeks of playing and voting

So, if you see me on Facebook or some other chat over the coming weekend say hi. If I don't say it back, it might be because I'm cursing at my computer. I might try to stream part of it on Justin.Tv but I'm not sure yet. Wish me luck!
