Furever Alone – Post mortem

So now that I’ve slept and finished work (Crazy Australian timezones), I’ll talk a little about my project.

Overall, really happy with how it turned out.
I planned it terribly, so the gameplay coming together as well as it did (well, I like it) was more of an evolutionary fluke as opposed to clever planning. Next time I’ll definitely spend a lot more time in planning… more than walking to the shops and buying food, then starting.

I think I’d also like to explore character and story development more. Surprising doing the little comic / instructions screen was a lot of fun. Had I been more organised or had more time I would definitely like to animate cutscenes in that style.

On the downside, loading it up at work I noticed that some of the fonts didn’t embed, which was a bummer because I don’t have access my server from here to correct and upload the fix. I should just be thankful that it was just a niggly thing like that and not a deal-breaker.

Lots of fun, will definitely be doing it again in another 4 months. I’m hooked!
Time to go play a boat-load of games…

Oh, you can view my entry here:

Would love to here what scores you’re all getting. I just got 133 points. I think there’s potential to get upwards of 300… maybe more.

I'll be back!

All done, Furever Alone!
