I&#8217;m usually the one desperately trying to code the last gameplay elements 10 minutes before the submission deadline.<\/p>\n <p>Overall, I&#8217;m pretty happy with how my first LD went. I set out to actually finish the game instead of getting bogged down with coding complex game mechanics or doing lots of art for the game as I always do. I think I actually succeeded with that goal even though the game has some rough parts, such as a complete lack of music, sound effects and graphics.<\/p>\n <p>Even though the game is a bit short, all the gameplay elements are there, there&#8217;s a menu and I even had time to add some animations. Considering the game was made in ~20 hours, it isn&#8217;t that bad at all.<\/p>\n <p>Here&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=woILeXZ7JFQ\">the timelapse I recorded<\/a> if anyone&#8217;s interested. I&#8217;m sorry there&#8217;s no music, the laptop I&#8217;ve been using isn&#8217;t really capable of editing video.<\/p>\n <p>For the next LD I&#8217;ll hopefully come more prepared.<\/p>","time":"December 19th, 2010 8:08 pm","title":"Done!"}
