couldn't finish it in time

I worked hard on this one, and a serious bug appeared out of nowhere just an hour ago, and I've been solving it, but couldn't finish the game in time, it hurts knowing that you put in effort for something and just couldn't deliver it in time, maybe next jam :(

You still have an hour left, don't give up!

maybe I'll part in some other jam, fix this one meanwhile... It's a long chain of bugs you can say, that appeared out of thin air, and in my attempt to revert back everything, it just got even weirder, and now I don't have any idea what broke and where exactly :(

Don't worry about it, I couldn't finish it in time either because lack of time and C# knowledge, it was fun participating, but sometimes you just cannot make it in time, hopefully you did learn more about game development. Because that's very good as now you can make better games if you use enough time, and it's not about winning or getting popular, but its for participating and learning about game development. I hope you enjoyed this jam as your first or one of many, because I did enjoy the jam a lot because I  learned a lot more about unity2d.

I cannot even finish my game in time because of how little I knew about unity and switching idea in the middle of the jam with 3 days remaining.

Yep length a lot, and now I have a good looking background, maybe I'll fix this one and make a full game out of it that I can publish somewhere :)

I think that's what I'm going to do too, just finish the game in as much time I want, and if I'm done then post it here on itch.io for everyone to play!

yes very true I would do the same!

What you write is so nice and true!

Don't have anything to add :D

Still submit it! That's my advice, at least. Don't let it linger in the back of your head.

Submit it, do a post-mortem, call it good :)

It doesn't break the game but, nothing works either, raycasters are flying randomly in every direction, enemy spaceships going into full spin mode, and the supposed AI allies retreat faster than anything. It's anything but just weird funny right now. While most of these stuff worked pretty great till the last night. God knows what went wrong.

Call it a feature not a bug ;)

I think that you should submit it!
