Congrats to everybody involved. I'm looking forward to playing a load of games over the next few weeks.\r\n\r\nAnyway, about the game...\r\n\r\nI had a hunch Evolution would be the theme so had an idea in my head from the start. The end result is not too far from the initial vision although several shortcuts had to be taken to finish in time and I'm not entirely happy with a few elements of the game - the lack of any music being one. \r\n\r\nI seem to have mainly been making action\/arcade type games lately and wanted to try my hand at something a little more abstract. I'm also interested in finding out how I can direct the player towards the games objectives without actually telling them directly what to do. To this end the game contains no instructions other than the title \"Evolve\". \r\n\r\nHope you enjoy it.<\/p>","title":"Evolve"}
