\n ENTRY->\u00a0HERE<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

So a few days has passed since deadline. I’m glad from all comments people have left me about my game. Got some great feedback and I thought I’d do like many others and write a short Post Mortem.<\/p>\n

This was my first Ludum Dare and as I can’t draw or code Twine is the best engine out there for me as I can write atleast.<\/p>\n

“The 10 (other) Seconds Journey” wasn’t my first Twine game but it’s one of the first.<\/p>\n

INFO<\/b><\/p>\n

The game was done in approx 5-6 hours.<\/p>\n

Engine was Twine.<\/p>\n

Used Google Web Fonts.<\/p>\n

Graphics made by PaperBlurt.<\/p>\n

The BAD<\/b><\/p>\n

I feel I should’ve tied the 10 parts together in a better way as some people got confused, basically adding some kind of transition or similar. I also want to change the choices made during the Rock Hudson-part based on my girlfriend’s feedback. Finally maybe music would’ve been good and maybe use puns in another way. (The part with Rock Hudson is something I’ll change after the competition when I got an “OK” from Ludum Dare, but now it’ll be as it is).<\/p>\n

The GOOD<\/b><\/p>\n

I feel I got that quick pace and flow I sought to get. I also, somewhat like the design, as it feels just as it was: a game made in 5-6 hours. I believe I got some funny stuff in there too (Hitler, Baseballers and Titanic). I think one of the best stories is the countdown where I’ve implemented some parts from myself (you know the “dad part”) and the same go for the part regarding who you feel “second to”.<\/p>\n
