You should now be able to take a photo and display it on the polaroid in slot 1. Let me know if you have any problems. I will be continuing development on this project because I'm having fun with it!\r\n\r\nPhotoWorlds is a puzzle game in which the player will solve puzzles using a camera. The player will photograph and area to find clues hidden in the Photo World (White blocks become green, hidden passages are revealed, etc). I had some time constraints so I do not feel I will be quite where I want the game to be, but I am happy with what I have so far and will be continuing development after the competition!\r\n\r\nI had a blast with my first ludum dare competition! I didn't get ANYWHERE near where I wanted to be but my time was limited. I want to thank my wife who let me work most of the day today (our 12th anniversary!). She was very understanding, but is not about to let me slide on taking her to dinner! Good luck to everyone, I hope you all had fun!","title":"PhotoWorlds"}
