| NOTES |
keep the theme in mind while playing.
my first LD game and first ever game from scratch.
it was a mad dash to familiarize myself with lua and figure out
what resources were available for what I wanted to complete.
went for a gameboy classic kind of feel... minus the black background. oops!
it turned out almost exactly as I wanted, with less polish than I
wanted, of course :)
didn't want to fuss around too much with game mechanics since this is
a whole new world for me - so I went with a "story-driven" approach.
hopefully it wasn't a story borne totally of sleep deprivation and lack
of creativity.
my apologies for the programmer art!
would not have been possible without the help of the brilliant authors of
a couple libraries I used. you guys made this 48 hours much less of a hell
than it could have been!
