Hello hello! My name is Maia, and I'm holding down the fort as the resident non-CS-major of the class, and proof of the Williams liberal arts mentality, the power of experiential learning and autodidacticism, and the value of learning lots of new things in a really short amount of time. (For those who are curious, my major is music, and I have a single semester of CS to my name.)
I have spent my first class period of Game Jam wrestling with IDEs, trying to run libgdx demo games because I thought that sticking with Java (which I already know a bit of) would be easier than teaching myself Javascript and using codeheart.js. HA.
Now, three hours later, I have a lump of files on my scratch disk. I can't for the life of me run any of the libgdx demo games (BlueJ does nothing, Eclipse is worse, the libgdx starter file keeps giving me error messages) so I've caved and started using codeheart.js. Which isn't listening to anything I tell it, and insists that it doesn't recognize functions that are built into it. ALL I WANT TO DO IS MAKE TINY CIRCLES! JAVASCRIPT, WHY U NO LET ME MAKE TINY CIRCLES?
Yours in struggs,
Maia
