I have finally finished everything. I was late for my submission so please consider my first LD as a sort of a test run rather than an official sign up. But even though I was late the game itself was made within 72 hours and I learned a lot in the last 3 days.

I made a game that is a prototype of the kind of adventure games I used to play as a game and wanted to play. This was my first time attempting build at least a semblance of a dungeon.

Things to consider for the next LD: - Focus on the main base game and then proceed to polish it - Pixel art takes as much time if not more than regular art. Specialize in an art style in advance - Prepare tons of more base code and mend the rough edges of your skills and engine related knowledge base - Do not underestimate the time it takes to build, error-check, and publishing the game

Again, I had tons of fun. Enter the link below to play the game. I hope to join in the next LD as well !!
