Enjoy!\r\n\r\nEditor of the amateur and independent \"Game Side Story\" website, I devote 80% of my time at the Indies, those that never speaks, the events that stand out and are incredibly catchy (like this Ludum Dare). And last year I participated. Just for fun.\r\n\r\nThis year I really wanted to be serious. With a true idea, not only to experience this event from the inside. And believe it or not, I'm really attached to my creation. And I crowd with a curious foot a world of which I speak often... but i don't know how is to be the creator.\r\n\r\nMy little \"Minimalism\" is my baby. I love it. I hope you will like it too. <\/p>","title":"Minimalism Textual Adventure"}
