Motivation to work on my own projects is a real issue for me. I’m efficient and always deadline oriented when I’m doing projects for (or with) other people, but when it’s just me…distraction and self-doubt creep in. But not this time! It may be a tiny "game", but its my tiny "game", and its DONE!!! Thank you Ludum Dare."},{"author_name":"garrick","author_uid":"31493","time":"Dec 15, 2013 @ 7:03am","epoch":1387090680,"text":"Am I missing something or is it really just the clicking and then it's over?"},{"author_name":"SuperPokeunicorn","author_uid":"9858","time":"Dec 15, 2013 @ 7:06am","epoch":1387090860,"text":"perhaps not all that fun, but it has a good message."},{"author_name":"JoeManaco","author_uid":"6837","time":"Dec 15, 2013 @ 7:12am","epoch":1387091220,"text":"not really a game. however, it's sweet ;)"},{"author_name":"RocketDuke","author_uid":"29113","time":"Dec 15, 2013 @ 2:02pm","epoch":1387115820,"text":"Nice motivation to do something."},{"author_name":"Ako","author_uid":"29848","time":"Dec 15, 2013 @ 7:01pm","epoch":1387133760,"text":"No Garrick, you aren't missing anything.

As a person who has to balance fun with class work, extra curricular, and professional development, it can be a struggle keeping myself motivated towards making games. I think this game does a great job of reminding me that while it's good to relax and play games, playing alone doesn't really make you GO anywhere."},{"author_name":"JoeProgram","author_uid":"19367","time":"Dec 16, 2013 @ 5:20am","epoch":1387170900,"text":"Nice! Though maybe after virtual you presses the computer button I should have to continue to mash my mouse button for 18 hours ;)\r\rThe only part I found a little confusing was the "One Control, One Level, One Message" screen. At first I thought I was making a choice between these three, or there would be three minigames. Doing it like a movie trailer - with each of these fading in and out one at a time - could have helped me understand this was a presentation of information, ad not something I would be interacting with."},{"author_name":"deathray","author_uid":"17861","time":"Dec 16, 2013 @ 5:20am","epoch":1387170900,"text":"Not much of a game, but the artwork's not bad."},{"author_name":"Ako","author_uid":"29848","time":"Dec 16, 2013 @ 5:41am","epoch":1387172160,"text":"Mocuto - Thanks so much for your kind words. I'm glad you could relate. JoeProgram, thanks for the feedback! I see know how that screen could have seemed like choices. I'll change that to a movie trailer style like you suggested (after the voting).
