Well, I’ve done it again. I’ve wasted a bunch of time, and now I’m likely not going to finish.

Well, failure was always an option.

I’m not going to give up!

I’m in until the end.

I have some new goals for my game. I’m going to try my hardest to get these done.

• Player movement: Walk, run, and jump
• Level terrain: Simple tileset and three rooms
• Ending: Maybe an ending scene, maybe just “You win!”

That’s about it, really.

I’m really wishing that I hadn’t wasted all the time that I did.

I won’t give up, though.

More after the break!

The LD version of Desolate wasn’t intended to be the finished game, anway. I’m going to keep working after LD to finish it.

Also, I’m dropping the “platform hell” difficulty level. I intend to keep some challenge, but it won’t be hardcore.

I’m hoping that this all works out for me.

Peace, love, and a grander vision,

– Henry
