Did you work in a team?
6 members: Myself (Team Lead/Programmer), BurntRobot (Art Lead/Characters), GalaxyDork(Environmental Art), BeatleyTQD (SFX), Lars (Music), Rhombicosidodecahedron (Programmer).

It was a great time working with this team. We focused on balancing life with the challenges of a jam and put together a smaller project.

Was the resolution a challenge?
From a design perspective it was not the hardest challenge, mainly because our game is turn based and an 8x8 grid was easy to put into 64X64 resolution. However, our art team did a fantastic job of making easily readable sprites at an 8X8 size.

Also want to send a shout out to our sound guys who made intentional efforts to ensure the sounds/music that they created fit within what we would expect from a low resolution game, while also looking to explore outside of traditional 8bit sounds.

What did you learn?
Personally, as the programmer I had never done anything turn based before, and it was a blast learning how to program a turn based game. I know one of our artists had not worked much in pixel art before and adapted super well to the low resolution style. He had great guidance from our other artist on that as well.
