Story

I missed to many LD since the first I enjoyed, but this time I was too eager to participate.
I managed to find 10 hours this weekend to push an entry \o/

Somehow it was even an advantage not to use these 48h: I was definitely pushed to remove stuffs as the time passed.

- I wanted many rules, (only one remained at the end)
- I wanted a leaderboard (but I would have used stuffs already coded)
- I wanted music and sounds (guess what)

I finally had issues building the game, (I have been stuck building an android apk) but giving up I somehow managed to export an html5 version just in time, which is quite universal for you players :rocket:
So even if the game is intended to be mobile, it's simple enough to be played with a mouse, and thus html5 it better for this LD showcase.

And to finish, it's quite nice to use a Twitter thread as a devlog as it happens ! Quick stories + screenshots to archive a step.

Now time to get some sleep, it was a draining and inspiring WE.
