SO overall here's a bunch of things I've learnt after this first LD: * Keep the workplace clean and organized! Near the end I ended up having so much stuff in so many different folders that it was making me anxious. Keep the sprites, music, code, scenes all in specific places. I am a messy person usually, but here it's important for real. * Animations are much more difficult to do than I thought. They take a looot of time and it's hard to make them look natural. I just did the movement of my character but I wanted to animate everything. Also maybe photoshop is not the best of programs for this, I'll try something made specifically for pixel art in the future. * I should comment my own code to always know what I'm doing. The code should always be clear and smart. * Strive for a complete game. I am happy with what I did because it's finished and even if it's short it follows a logic.

I am really enjoying playing the games that other people have made. If you want to check out mine, here's a link! I'd really appreciate it! https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/48/marianas-trench
