It&#8217;s still awfully buggy, terribly ugly, and annoyingly silent, but I did create a game in 48 hours. In any case, I&#8217;ll definitely be writing a reflection on this some time in the future, and will certainly return for LD #21 with a little more experience and a little less of the thought &#8220;Must&#8230; DEBUG&#8230; MOVEMENT CODE! BLARGH!&#8221; and more of the thought of making a more&#8230; polished game and one with a better game design. Today, I have a raw game. Next time, who knows what I&#8217;ll create.<br \/>\n I&#8217;m quite amazed at what everyone else did, but I suppose with my level of experience (which is writing about 2 games before this), I&#8217;m not too surprised at the results. I&#8217;d say that this was a pretty good end to my first Ludum Dare, and I&#8217;m quite satisfied with both my product and the process to get there. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this weekend (including the soccer game in the middle &#8211; a weekend where you can get sunburned AND create a game is a pretty dang good weekend).<\/p>\n <p>You can view the game <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/ludum-dare-20\/?action=preview&amp;uid=2934\">here<\/a><\/p>","time":"May 1st, 2011 6:34 pm","title":"Submit!"}
