Thank you, Josh. I appreciate the kind words.
I would be lying if I said that I'm not aiming to be part of the top 100 games and have a chance to be featured on Mark's channel, and I don't see anything wrong with that. But looking at the number of jammers and the amount of amazing games produced during the weekend, it would be extremely difficult to climb that ladder, especially with a solo dev like me.
But the main reasons I joined were to gain more experience, make friends, and learn more about myself as a developer. Aside from the feedback, seeing people play my game and actually have fun doing it, genuinely makes me happy, and I think that's the most rewarding thing about this jam.
