\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

First i want to thanks for all comments and plays<\/a>! Really apprieciate it!<\/p>\n

So here goes post mortem.<\/p>\n

1. What went right<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019m really happy with sum of all worktime put into the game<\/a>. \u00a0I\u2019ve managed time well and sleep just about right amount to\nbe aware of the surrounding and work. And I lost \u00a0some weigh<\/strong>t which was a big suprise for me, who would\u2019ve thought \":)\"<\/p>\n

2. What went wrong<\/strong><\/p>\n

In short, planing<\/strong>. I\u2019ve lost too much time doing graphics. Big mistake was creating whole scene instead of preparing reusable assets to create bigger locations. I also didn\u2019t focused on puzzles<\/strong> so in the end game feels shallow. I should focus more on interesting gameplay and longevity.<\/p>\n

3.What\u2019s next ?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019m currently working on finishing game and want to create something bigger and fun. I\u2019ve learnt a lesson and I try to setup \u00a0better workflow to manage longer game. I don\u2019t have to much to show as i\u2019m developing tool which will automate lightmap baking and asset management within blende<\/strong>r. I hope it will speed up location creation and allows me to spend more time on creating puzzles and story.<\/p>\n
