I have something important to write. That’s what I told myself as I got out of the shower 20 minutes ago. I dried off and\u00a0put on my Minecraft Creeper t-shirt that Sarah\u00a0got me for Christmas 3 years ago. It’s pretty faded now, hint hint, Sarah. Might be time for an upgrade.<\/p>\n

The whole time I was in there, I was contemplating what we’d just done. Sarah and I. Friday, I get an email from another game dev. (talented guy, BTW. played his game. It was coool.) He messaged to remind me of Ludum Dare this weekend, and asked me if I was going to attend our local gamedev group(gamedevlou, louisville,ky) event. I haven’t been feeling well lately, and hadn’t decided. Compos are\u00a0physically draining. You have to expend a great deal of energy and effort to compete, to finish what you start. I just didn’t know if I was up to it.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I casually texted Sarah(gamer GFs are the best BTW) and asked if she was interested in Ludum Dare,(had to explain what it was)\u00a0asked if she\u00a0would help me make a game this weekend. She said yes because she is awesome, and so when I got home from work, we began.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
We finished a game. Our first. Individually, my first, and her first completed project. I had an idea, and we started building it. After a blurred weekend of hard work and some bags under our eyes, we made a game.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I’m thankful that competitions like Ludum Dare exist. It represents a level playing ground where all are equal and only separated by their techniques.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Thank you Sarah for your help, brilliance & support. I can count very few people that understand & support me. You do both, and love me, still. \u00a0I can’t be grateful enough.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
We present to you, our first game & hope you enjoy it.<\/div>\n
