Hi all! We're the Geeks & Gadgets club at Marshall University (Huntington, West Virginia, USA). We love games, and we love open source, so we're happy to be taking part in the Open Jam.
We'll be using the Pygame module for the Python. Pygame is a featureful library based on libSDL, and since it is cross-platform, our game will also be cross-platform. GNU/Linux is our primary target environment.
Art will be created using open source tools such as GIMP (GNU GPLv3) and Piskel (Apache License).
For the audio side of things, we are considering several music creation tools. We're heavily leaning toward FamiTracker (GNU GPLv2), but other programs such as MilkyTracker (GNU GPLv3) are still on the table.
We'll probably use Audacity (GNU GPLv2+) for recording sound effects.
Happy coding everyone!
