This was my 12th Ludum Dare in a row, so I've accumulated quite the data set in terms of entry ratings. Here's the graph of all 11 of my rated entries (LD36 had no judging):

As you can see, I've generally gotten better over time, with a few entries that received standout ratings in certain categories. I'm still super pumped that I finally got a 4 star this LD! That being said, I feel like my progress has been a bit slow. I've gotten better, but it's taken 4 whole years! With school and all, I usually don't get to devote a lot of time to game development. I feel that if I just spent more time working on my craft between Ludum Dares, I could make a really standout entry. My other regret is really playing it safe lately. At first, I was more willing to try different genre and more radical ideas. Lately, however, I've been sticking to my 2D platformer comfort zone. 2D platformers are my favorite, but maybe I should branch out.

Anyway, this was a great Ludum Dare and I can't wait for the next one.
