I kind of succeeded with something but not really with the game side. Had little inspiration and in the end not enough to actually do anything with the few good ideas I had. Spent most of my available time getting the SuperPowers collaborative engine and IDE running on a hosted Azure website, which in itself was pretty cool and taught me a lot about hosting multi-platform applications in Azure…

In the end my son and I were talking about what cool ideas others had implemented for the two button control theme. We joked about it would be fun if you used ALT-F4 as the control keys – so he quickly made a simple sprite animation and I threw together an even simpler game in my hosted SuperPowers IDE. Quite happy with the results considering we only spent about 3-4 hours doing the game and we used a hosted IDE to program it.
