Basic idea: A game where you explore the Saturnian moon of Enceladus.
This was my first attempt at an LD and I didn't quite finish, which is disappointing. I feel I learned a lot though. I will keep adding to the game and actually try and finish it post-LD.
What went wrong:
I made the probably unwise decision to use the Phaser framework and JavaScript/HTML5 instead of Flash/Flixel, my usual toolset. I just wasn't familiar enough with Phaser and its quirks to finish my game in time. Adding to that, it proved difficult to turn a basic concept into a workable idea. Ideas, at least when it comes to games and gameplay, are not my strength.
What went right: I learned a lot. I feel that I have a much better chance at making something good in the next LD and I'm looking forward to it. :)
