I made the decision\/mistake to make all the models for the town at the start, and I love the town models, but I think they sunk too much of my time, since I didn't even start CODING the game features until about noon on Saturday!

However, I think the character's movements were a bit slow and the buildings very spaced out, so it was quite long to move from a building to another.\n\nNice work apart from that, well done :)","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Darylsteak","author_uid":"1052965","time":"2019-10-07T14:20:38Z","epoch":1570458038,"modified":1570458038,"text":"Not a bad game, the way the theme was done was interesting alright. The gameplay was smooth, although I would not have figured out how to progress if you didnt add the starter tips! I also like the simplistic models.\n\nConsidering the conditions you were under, not really much to complain about, except it being rather quiet.\n\nWelcome back after a year and a half!

Haha oh the joys of a time limit! Oh and Not sure if you noticed, but there was a sprint option to move faster. :smile:\n\n@darylsteak I really wanted to add an in game hint\/tip section but I never got around to it. Putting it in the description was the next best thing! Hopefully I'll be around for the next LD also, now that my job schedule permits it, I don't plan on missing them if I can help it.\n\n@hcursino Oh no! It should close the menu if you press shift while it's open.
