Quality and depression

Game

Rough

13 years ago

I wasn’t able to concentrate and work on the game yesterday. But I spent some time having a look at some of the other contestant’s games. It’s amazing how advanced they are after just 2, 3 or 4 days. My hat’s off to all of you!

It also makes me doubt if my own game is even allowed to compete with such high quality. There are complex 3D, physics-driven games in the making, and I come up with something so simple?

Today I decided to not compete with others, but with myself. It doesn’t matter if my game doesn’t match the quality, visually or gameplay-wise, as long as I can finish it to a point where it’s at least playable. I’ll take it as a chance to learn how to deal with narrow time frames and producing the best compromise between quality and time based restrictions.

If these experiences keep coming, I’ll definitively join more of those contests from now on.

Shoobies leave a sticky trail of mucus in their wake, which can impede movement for any creature that steps in it.

Some time ago, we posted a screenshot of the Mexico level. A curiosity about it is that, like some other scenarios of the game, it was inspired by a real landscape, The Basaltic Prisms of Santa María Regla. It is one of the natural wonders of the country!
