Not making it easy on ourselves

So Abraxus Games (myself and Patrick James) are utilizing the awesome space at Zeal Coding in downtown Medford, OR to participate in our very first game jam. I've done a little coding before and I'm still learning. Patrick is a great artist. We came up with our idea as fast as we could, but we're not going to be able to work on it very much. We still have work today, so we can't really get started til tonight. It's going to basically be a 24 hour game jam for us. Here we go!

What a ride! Game complete!

This was our first game jam, and oh man, was it fun. Unfortunately, we didn't get the time off from work so we only put in about 24 hours into our game. However, it's complete and up on the site. There's still a LOT I would love to do to it, but for the jam itself, I'll settle for making a few fixes to bugs. At least they're not game-breaking.

Check out the fun we had thanks to our friends down at Coding Zeal, who supplied us with space, internet, food, ping pong, and a very necessary massage chair!
