You are supposed to get a death screen after 10 seconds, but that missing code isn't there. HOWEVER! I think I can use what I've learned from this, and adjust a bit, and come back and finish this game next week.\n\nAlso... no music... I just didn't have time for music. I know there are ten more hours for the jam, but I have to leave for work in ten minutes. I spent all the time I could on this.\n\nSo, no rating, but I did make something, which is the first game I've made in a year.
