After-Thoughts

-Started real late and didn't really think it through enough.

-Had a plan for the art and sound assets but spent too much time on getting stuff to work.

-Should set a cut-off point for features and allocate sometime to art & sound acquisition.

-Oh well, more experience is good experience.

-Do a warm up before hand =P

-Remember the start date!
