Over the past weekend I teamed up with @rsninja722, @wm-c, @exvacuum, (insert rest of names here), and our friend Sally to participate in the [LudumDare46](https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/46) game jam. This post will outline the game development process.

Starting at 20:30 Friday night, we all anxiously awaited this jam's theme to be released.

..and so we started.
|
|
|
|
Day 0 was spend on three tasks:
|
|
- Deciding the story for our game
|
|
- Allocating tasks
|
|
- Building a software framework for the game
|
|
|
|
We decided to program our game in JavaScript (but not without an argument about types) because that is @rsninja722's primary language, and we can use his JS game engine, [game.js](https://github.com/rsninja722/game.js). On top of that, we also decided to use [SASS](https://sass-lang.com/) for styling, and I designed [a CSS injector](https://github.com/rsninja722/LudumDare46/blob/master/docs/assets/js/injection/cssinjector.js) that allows us to share variables between JS and SASS.
|
|
|
|
After task allocation, I took on the job of handling sounds and sound loading for the game. I decided to start work on that during day 1, due to homework.

*The game's progress at the end of Day 0 can be found at commit [0b4a1cd](https://github.com/rsninja722/LudumDare46/tree/0b4a1cdb92e62ff0f9453f6f169f641dd82e8f09)*
