First of all: thanks to all commentors! I’m sorry that my reply rate turned out so abysmal – after I had made up for the massive lack of sleep, I basically returned to further develop the game as I was quite unhappy with the version that I ended up uploading. I try to get the new version up sometime within the next week. For me it is finally fun to play. Yeah, I may repeat myself, but… this was my very first game at all (when not counting a handful of unfinished text adventures from many, many years ago).
With thanks & best regards,
Clapostrophe.
P.S.: I just realized that the page says that I submitted my entry 10 and a half hours before the deadline (o! if only I had so much time left). Actually I uploaded it within the last 15 minutes before the deadline. I had setup a private testpage and uploaded a extremely raw version (as opposed to the raw version that finally became the entry) – apparently that is the time that was clocked in.
