Yikes! That was a real mess, plenty of falling through the mesh.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>As this was my first time at LD I wasn't really worried about making a great game. So long as I made &quot;a game&quot;. It was more an excuse to learn Unity.

I liked seeing the rest of the stage in the distance; it added a sense of exploration which fit the theme nicely.
