First of all, I had an amazing tine this LD and certainly will be back again. Still though I want to share my experiences.

When I got the idea of doing this I had many thoughts like, im probably not gonna finish or I might wanna participate in the Jam to keep it easy on myself. But neither of those happened. I actually made my game too simple making my submission a bit stale.

Next I learned more then I ever thought. Things like UI elements and using variables through different classes all was new for me.

I really enjoy playing other people's games as well.

Anyways, Id love to hear other people story about their first jam.
