Final days - commence coding...

DangerOnTheRagr on 2012/05/11 22:02 of Alias - an old-school FPS

I've taken the previous 5 days to make artwork, flesh out gameplay mechanics, and put my entry on GitHub. Now it's time to code...

I know, I know - coding, testing, and packaging on the last 2 days sounds risky - it probably is, to a certain extent. However, I'm alleviating most of the risk by packaging the game as flat source (no premade executables),and using as much pre-written code as possible (I won't be writing anything besides level-loading and level logic, hopefully).

Still there is obvious risk to this approach - I should be able to finish by the deadline, but disasters could happen...

how can you put your entry on github before you start coding?

I made a GitHub repository containing basically just the artwork and license information. :) The first code files should be appearing within the next few hours.
