Just wanted to say once more, thank you everyone for all your kind comments! I'm sorry I wasn't able to answer them sooner--I spent August catching up on all the things that I neglected in July (lol) and then I blinked and it was halfway through September.
I had an absolutely fantastic time working on this game, and I'm THRILLED to have made it to the final round of judging, and the top 5 for People's Choice. Thank you, Ji and PumpkinSnake! You were INCREDIBLE teammates, and I could not be happier with what we accomplished!
