The Wacky Adventure of John by coolDude38
This is my second Ludum Dare entry. The game is a dungeon crawler where your goal is to get as deep into a cave as possible. There are also shops where you can buy and sell items with your HP.
I'm not really happy with how the game turned out. The idea just wasn't very good and I think I had too little time to really expand on the idea. I also didn't have time to add features I wanted to add. I also didn't have time to work on the art too much and I didn't add any sound for time concerns.
I've learned a lot through the creation of this game. Next time, I'll try to work on other stuff if I get stuck on some part of the programing. I'll also try to focus on brainstorming ideas more before jumping in to avoid a situation like this where I make a game which isn't particularly engaging. I'll also try to work on adding sound for the next Ludum Dare which I haven't done before. I think stuff like music and good art really raises the quality of the game which is a plus.

I read your comment that you were quite discouraged by the way the game turned out, I do think that this is a good idea, which made me want to replay to see what loot I would earn in the next run and if I could survive. You have more time to work on polishing it now that the game jam is finished :)
