That&#8217;ll come in \u00a0a while after I sort out my thoughts on it. I might do a technical post mortem first.<\/p>\n <p>Anyway<\/p>\n <p>It&#8217;s about my <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/ludum-dare-21\/?action=preview&amp;uid=5432\">previous ld game<\/a>(again, sort of), which has been my first proper contact with game-making after a long long time. As if I put it (making games) on a shelf and forgot about it for many years and let it collect dust and cobwebs. It&#8217;s something I can do that makes me happy regardless of the end result. It&#8217;s something I can do that takes nothing and time and makes something, and at the end of the day I can sit back and look at something which wasn&#8217;t there before.<\/p>\n <p>And you guys are to blame for me finding it on that shelf.<\/p>\n <p>People liked this game of mine for some reason(the ones that understood it) and some made a point to tell me in IRC they remembered and liked if from all the way back then which blew me out of the water. Days later I still can&#8217;t believe that happened. So now that said game is on the android market and the ubuntu software center and desura and such I feel that I should give something back to the people who inspired me to keep going.<\/p>\n <p>So what I&#8217;ll do is post a bunch of desura keys for that game of mine every day till Chritmas.<\/p>\n <p>Let&#8217;s start with 2 for now and see where that takes us:<\/p>\n <p>R42VR-VIU5B-ZBR2T-EL8BD-RIZIK<\/p>\n <p>PUOJQ-X0BD5-I2QG2-E26MQ-KZCQC<\/p>","time":"December 21st, 2011 6:56 pm","title":"(Not really a) post mortem"}
