This was my first game jam, and one thing I learned from this jam is how much can be done in such a short time if you work diligently, and make the time for it.
Game design is a field i'd really love to work in, but life always seems to get in the way of getting work done, so it's been a while since I've put so much effort into a project. Even though the graphics and sound are very basic, I'm quite happy with how my game turned out overall!
It's hard to believe that just 2 weeks ago I was coming up with game ideas for each possible theme while joking around with a coworker, and now I'm here having finally put out a full game. It's the jumping off point I needed to start taking my future career seriously and stop treating it like a side hobby.
