The game is called Offspring. All I’ve got to show for five hours is an idea document, a description of screens and required assets, and this rules.xml file. I have a pretty good notion of the kinds of interactions I want to happen in this game, but I know the actual rules will need lots of tweaking. So my hope here is by putting all my rules and triggers inside an xml file I can spend Saturday putting in the framework and art, and tweak the hell out of all the rules on Sunday. This is a bit of a game of exploration, especially for the first time player, until you discover all the rules — well, presuming I finish in time. \":)\"<\/p>\n
