I’m scrambling to put together a stub written in C – a codebase I can compile to Linux, Win32 and OS X. It’s currently capable of building Linux and Win32 binaries from Linux, and I mostly know how to expand it to OS X (I’d build it natively, I wouldn’t know how to do it from Linux). You can check the progress here: https://github.com/sqaxomonophonen/cross-stub

I might chicken out and use LÖVE like I did in LD19. Or Unity. Or something else. I really like developing in C, but 48h gamedev in C might just be suicide

Reading up on orbital mechanics while eating spaghetti ala olio con bacon. Not convinced my game (a Ports of Call / Kerbal Space Program crossover) will be done before deadline, so I’m trying to dumb down the mechanics a bit.

I didn’t get screenshots of the last ~3 hours of tweaking, adding artsy fartsy text to the backgrounds and packaging, sorry!

(Is there anything special I have to do to link it to my entry, or is this it?)

With the one and only chili sauce. And lots of it. Its label says “NATURAL COLOR”. Probably won’t be posting screenshots yet, but there’s a time lapse video coming.

And I believe I have a design!

Probably going to use Löve, so lua will be the language — should be easy to make Windows and OS X distributions. Most of the work will be done in a terminal running screen and vim Other than that, I might use Gimp, Inkscape, Blender, Apple Logic, Native Instruments’ Komplete,… whatever makes sense at the time. Oh, and this is my first LD.
