Commentary:
This is a strange game, sure. The themes I had were "Potato" and "Asteroid" by the 48 Secret Jam, and "Combine 2 Incompatible Genres" by the LD41 (I combinated a Shoot-Em-Up with a Commerce Simulator I guess).
Why I participated both jams? Well, I'm a undergratuate, and have lots of stuff to do. Joining jams is not one of them. But since I like fiddling with game development, I might as well make a single game for two jams, to save time, you know.
Hope you have at least some fun!
