Even In Your Postmortem

Where do I even start with this?  How do I write a postmortem for a gag game?  Whelp, here we go.

I wanna start off by explaining the decision to make this monstrosity.  The theme this Ludum Dare was “You are the Monster,” which, while sharing a striking resemblance to LD25′s “You are the Villain,” is just thematically different enough that it squeezed its way into the running and ended up winning.

I dislike the theme for a number of reasons.  For one, let’s just resubmit my LD25 game and call it a day, right?  And secondly, the theme could really only be interpreted in one of two ways:  1) You are a mythological non-human creature that may or may not actually do bad things. or 2) You are a human who does bad things, a metaphorical monster.
