I had been trying to do a Jam for a year now but the timing never worked out. What a hectic and fun experience. 35 hours of total work - I just barely missed the Compo submittal by about 2-3 hours. It was definitely due to the growing pains of new development: Learned how to do flat art. First deployment for WebGL. First index.html troubleshooting. Learned how to use Itch.io and LD websites. Learned texture sampling. And built a game while I was at it!

Introducing: Plague Machine. A simulation/RPG/Mancala-esque game about making a deal with the Devil to stave off death by killing Cities of people.

It was a blast but now I need to recover...by playing everyone elses' amazing LD games!
