Whew!  What a weekend.  I started at 9 pm EST Friday evening and didn’t sleep until around 12:30 PM Saturday afternoon.  I tried to sleep Friday night, but my brain was in work mode, so I gave in and worked through the night.  So after 6 hours of sleep Saturday afternoon, I worked pretty much non stop until now, just before 9 pm Sunday evening.  Yeah, I just made a game in 48 hours, only sleeping 6 of those 48 hours.  I’m going to sleep like a rock tonight!

This was my first Ludum Dare comp, so I wasn’t sure what to expect or how it would go.  Besides being extremely tired, I had a great weekend.  It might be my lack of sleep delirium, but I feel my game is pretty fun.  I’d post a screenshot, but unfortunately it looks like I’m not able to (maybe because this is my first post).  I’m too tired to worry about it now.

Anyway, the inspiration of this game was Quill18’s entry from the last LD, Drill18.  I enjoyed his entry and thought “how cool would it be to be able to mine all kinds of different planets?”  It just so happens that the theme “Connected Worlds” fit that perfectly.  I took the idea and ran with it and the result is, to me at least, a ton of fun!  I hope you will try it out and please let me know what you think.  I’m open to constructive criticism!  I don’t do much game development, so I’ve still got a lot to learn.

Thanks for reading and thanks for playing my game!
