I tried before and got a bit distracted by shiny things like 3d. Got it finished but it wasn't that good - but great learning :)
This time I'm sticking with 2d and going to concentrate on mechanics. Hopefully fo a bit better this time?
Focus on mechanics and simplicity with regards to creating something somehat polished. Forget the bells and whistles, make it simple, make it enjoyable, make it complete!
thanks for the suggestions. I've still to come up with a solid idea about 'complete', but fun is where I should concentrate my efforts :)
