This is my first time participating in a Ludum Dare and I must say it was a lot of fun!
My game, however, is unfortunately not completely finished, mainly because I started far to late to add playable content and since the writing of the game engine took a lot of time (especially the buggy and badly implemented slopes).
The idea of the game were to follow a man who just lost something he only got one of, his family. Each level would've linked to a season and the completion of each level would've help the man sort his memories of his family and deal with his loss. The title "The Man who Never Came Back" alludes to the mans journey, and his change of life perspective. That is, how he changed when his family died.
All in all, I look forward to future Ludum Dares and that I will have more time for content generation and that I will complete an entire game!
