You play as a jealous volcanic island god, who must blow up the other gods that you encounter.\r\n\r\nWhat went right:\r\n\r\nA friend inspired me to come up with what I thought was a pretty good idea.  Everybody I passed it across said they liked it.  After wasting a few hours agonizing over the theme, I was able to start work on what should have been a solid game.\r\n\r\nAll of the levels of the game (3 in total, LOL) are playable.\r\n\r\nWhat went wrong:\r\n\r\nWell, first of all, Mother Nature took up almost half a day from me due to very bad storms (torandos and hail!)  After that, I was back on track, but then I decided to take a break at the beginning of my second day.  And that break stretched in around 6 hours of goofing off.\r\n\r\nI'm still pretty new to Actionscript 3\/Flixel, so I spent a lot of time digging through Flixel\/AS3 internals to figure out how I wanted to do stuff.  That cost a fair amount of time.\r\n\r\nI didn't have a good testing regime too.\r\n\r\nGameplay isn't fleshed out.  You need a way to deflect the incoming fireballs.  I was going to have unused mana power a shield, but ran out of time to implement it.<\/p>","title":"Jealous Gods"}
