Blah

Have you ever found yourself in a situation where the more you mess with your game the less fun the game becomes?  This Mini Ludum Dare I decided to skip good programming practices and just hack stuff together to get gameplay up and running quickly.  The problem is, many of these messy ad-hoc solutions are now causing me trouble.

I don’t want to disappoint anyone, but I think I may take a break from this project.  If/when I pick it up again I will most likely do a complete rewrite of the code.

Oh, that’s too bad. Your game looked so cool.

Ah well, these things don’t always turn out. I still love that animated gif though. :)

I want to try it at least :/

Ok Jonny, I’ll let you try what I have, but if you were hoping to blow things up with a barrage of missiles it may be a little disappointing.

That was at least as exciting as the original. I’m not disappointed at all :)

Thanks for sharing it. I look forward to more when you get to it.
