Change of Heart (flash 10)

So much work. So many problems. The story took twice as long as I thought it would to write. The audio files took forever to record and process. My voice is so unprofessional – I just suck – and make it so hard for myself. This morning started with an aborted attempt to program the game in Unity. Unity just sucks for 2d to be honest. I punted it for flash punk and working every second managed to throw it together. Then I couldn’t upload to any flash game sites because it is too large (30 megs). Funny that is less than many hi-res pictures i click on these days. Anyway. I have thrown it in my dropbox for now and will release a much smaller version on kongregate when I have time.
If you like audio books, specifically dark science fiction/horror novels (like world war z for instance), then you might enjoy this. Before you try this make sure you are in a mellow mood. This shouldn’t be the first game you try. Turn the lights out and just chill. If you feel in the mood for a good novel, then that is a good time to try it. The story will probably take you about 20-30 minutes to listen to, depending on your decisions during the game.
Anyway, it was a blast. I am going to recover now and then read every post since this epic LD started.
Hope everyone had fun!
