LD17 is a go
The theme is…ISLANDS!
I already have a pretty good idea of what I am going to be doing. I believe that the scope is perfect, the graphics will be manageable and I will be able to see it through to the end. I am going to spend a bit of time prototyping it tomorrow morning and stripping out some of my code base that I wrote for the last LD entry.
I 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 that’s worth reading if you have never participated in Ludum Dare.
Ludum Dare is also about the community and all participants are encouraged to post entries to the Ludum Dare blog site. I will be posting some stuff at my blog over there as well.
Now to flesh out the design a bit.
