To be honest it\u2019s just a walking simulator, I had the core game loop finished in about 2-3 hours and was starting on art right after that. I put around 16+ hours into art between the first and second day. I kept finding that each step was actually taking a lot less time that I thought it would. I did run into an issue with GMS2 at the end of the first day where my placed tile sets would not show. It also helps that the theme was one of my stronger ideas for a game with super simple mechanics.
