I’m pretty excited. With about an hour to spare, I submitted my entry for LD #23.

Just like everyone else, there’s a lot I would have liked to add to the game, but simply didn’t have time. Ultimately, I’m really pleased with how far I got in the time allotted. I think the biggest missing piece is the lack of sound, but I would honestly rather add optional stuff, like power-ups (like additional oxygen) or more hazards (like orbiting satellites). More levels would be cool, and a tutorial at the beginning would probably help. It would probably also be smart to detect that a player is drifting off into space and let them start over quickly, instead of waiting for their oxygen to run out.

But ultimately, I made a simple game that works and is fun. It’s also fresh and different, albeit a little discombobulating..
