First, link to this game:

Then, a screen:

This night i went to sleep at 3am, i woke at 5:30 and went to work (i start at 7am), my head hurts a lot and i feel i need more than two hours of sleep tonight. I played my game a couple times again and this is my post mortem:<\/p>\n

The Good<\/h3>\n

A complete game: <\/strong>the game had everything. Start Menu, Game Intro, Actual Game, Game Ending.
\n Graphics: <\/strong>My Achille’s heel, i don’t know how, i don’t know why, but i found a graphical style and i made a couple simple animations. Achieving this gave me enough satisfaction.
\n Sound: <\/strong>I’m really happy about the game sounds. Bfxr was a good choice and this music generator<\/a> completed the work.
\n My first Ludum Dare: <\/strong>Since I found out about Ludum Dare in 2009, I always wanted to participate in this competition, and this was my first entry. I really enjoyed it!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The Bad<\/h3>\n

\n Crap story: <\/strong>The story intro\/ending were made in the last 3 hours, i never thought about them till the very last and i wrote some cheap texts.
\n The game is too short: <\/strong>There’s only one level, it’s kinda boring and it can be finished in less than one minute and a half.
\n Tools: <\/strong>My Unity3D and C# knowledges are low, i started toying them about a couple month ago. I got struck a lot of time trying to figure out how to progress (eg 2+ hours for jetpack physics).
\n Bad programming techniques: <\/strong>Using copy-paste between objects and spaghetti antipattern is usually a bad thing, trough i think it may be ok for fast developement. I wrote really few comments on my code, which is always a bad thing.
\n Timing: <\/strong>I had other things to do in this weekend, I stopped once in a while to eat and I slept enough during the first day. I managed to work 20-22 hours and submit my entry ten minutes before compo end, but probably that’s was only luck. \":)\" Having added at least one or two level and a boss fight could have improved my game a bit.\n <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And last but not the least, my timelapse:<\/p>\n
