So I thought, why not do the graphics first? It was a bad idea because I couldn&#8217;t implement all the graphics in at once and ended up with wasted graphics. It really dragged me down with the programming too.<\/p>\n <p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n <p>What I will do next time:<br \/>\n Programming is the priority. Going to use placeholders until all the programming is done. I just wanted to try graphics first, it was a disaster. I also wanted to do music but I always don&#8217;t have time for that &gt;.&lt;<\/p>\n <p>Results:<br \/>\n IMO I didn&#8217;t like how I executed the idea. I want to make a FULL version in the near future that is much better than this version<\/p>","time":"August 26th, 2013 6:10 pm","title":"HowToBasic: The game!"}
