Umm.. maybe you should check out what the Ludum Dare competition actually is.
Lack of capital is not a consideration. Free time on the chosen weekend is the only real limiting factor.
I entered [ludumdare.com] last year using PyGame and Gimp. I spent $0. I got 2nd place in the Cosmetic category.

Depending on whether he had two HW2 editions or not, it could have been done on 68K assembly, if he wrote a custom link program that didn't have all the system slowdowns, but it would have to have been the HW2 for the 12Mhz processor instead of the HW1 that used the 8Mhz.
Or at least that was the common thinking when I was programming for it.
