Hey,

I just finished my first entry (wich you can play here). Sadly, I had not much time and only worked for about 5 hours.

So, my opinion to the Ludum Dare… It was awesome! Learned much, watched some livestreams by some guys and I finished a game (more or less), even if my entry is bad and i should feel bad.

Well, what went right (The shorter thing first):

* Sound effects. I never really used them before, but now I can’t life without them.

* The theme. At first, I tought it was a bad theme, ’cause Ludum Dare’s are acutally always minimalistic due short time, but it went better than expected.

What went wrong:

* The polish. I didn’t have had enough time to polish my game. Also, it gets boring after some time.

* The cuts. Since this game is a FruitNinja-like, I made the fruits to be cut in 2 halfes. Sadly, every time the same. I planned to cut them off, where they actually were cut-off, like when you drag trough the middle, the part gets split in the middle.

* The menu, I only focused on the game, so the menu and the game-over screen were to simple, wich might be a plus because the theme is “minimalism”.

So, thats it.

Hope you’ll try my entry.
