I completely understand your sadness.. difficulty balancing is hard. Hell, I've messed it up in my game too (and I've never got it right in any of my games yet)
One of my teammates (and a very good friend of mine) shares your timezone. It must've been tough to manage everything.
Well, we will improve as time goes on - someday we'll be proficient enough to include all the content we wish in 4 days :) Hope to see you in future GMTK jams!
