My first 48hr compo; enjoy!
You play a demolition expert who finds herself facing a dark internal struggle as well as a daily light struggle.
As noted below, there's no ending screen--if you successfully destroy the yellow building, you've finished all there is to the game.

My goals for this game: Learn HaxeFlixel (I ended up giving up on that and using CreateJS). Have a fully-finished game (almost succeeded). Tell a story (I did come up with a good story, but I don't think it comes across that well). Make the in-game instructions good enough to not need external explanation (success, I think). Learn inkscape (a major success)!
What I didn't get finished: The dark levels are not complete (the collisions don't work right, so I disabled death/restarts in the dark levels). And there's no ending screen to resolve the story if you win. Finally, while I did manage to make the character sprite, I wasn't able to finish the walk/running animation in time, and I would have liked to add a few more sound effects.
Tools I used:
Code: javascript + CreateJS
Editor: Textmate
Graphics: Inkscape
Music: autotracker (converted with VLC)
Sound effects: bfrx
Hosting: heroku + node
