Especially since I've pretty much never worked in a team environment before.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I'm glad my beehive\/swarm and spirit code worked out in the end, and I'll be sure to look over the work other people did in this.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I kinda wish I had managed to get the wolf code done before you submitted this, considering you submitted before the 72 hour deadline, but oh well.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I hope to have future ventures of this kind with y'all in the future."},{"author_name":"DarkStoorM","author_uid":"113248","time":"Aug 29, 2016 @ 3:21pm","epoch":1472483760,"text":"Damn, that was fun watching the whole development process.

Love the community driven part of the game. The concept is solid and the assets were great. The game play felt directionless and having no end in sight made the actions seem to have no weight. With a bit more time I could see this being a great resource management game!"},{"author_name":"AurynSky","author_uid":"112476","time":"Aug 30, 2016 @ 4:27am","epoch":1472530920,"text":"Awesome game, Amazing that you guys accomplished so much in 2 days.

The fire is slowly depleting and you collect wood, drop it on the fire to get it burning again.  If the fire goes out, you lose.  It's not balanced and most the features we were aiming for didn't make it.  But it looks real nice ;)"},{"author_name":"ErikU","author_uid":"30880","time":"Sep 1, 2016 @ 2:59am","epoch":1472698440,"text":"Interesting day \/ night cycle.
