Almost certainly not Tired. If anything, it has been nothing but detrimental. Even though I got more work done, just look at the lighting on those triangular tiles - that's the result of not sleeping. I don't like not sleeping, it's just that it's been really hot here in the UK and that mixed with stress doesn't help anything.

Last few days of development have been an absolute pain, I keep on having to cook my GPU in an oven, and I've run out of thermal paste - so I've been relying on the power not going out and having my PC turned on constantly.

Anyway,

Here it is.

I would be lying if I said that I haven't poured absolutely everything into this, but also that everything doesn't seem to be good enough. I'm disappointed with the boss (whose AI took well over 9000 hours,) the rushed music & sfx. I'm glad I finished something, though.

Nice game.  It looks very nice and is fun.  Seems polished, but I didn't have my sound on, so I can't say anything about the music or sfx.  Good luck in the contest!

Ahh, thank you. To be honest I felt quite depressed when I submitted it, but a few comments like that have made it worthwhile. I should keep reminding myself that it was a timed contest, it's only my second game and that I really learned a lot of stuff making it.

Fun facts:
- All the visual assets were upscaled before they were actually put in the game.
- The physics game music was made within the last hour of submission.
- I'm now looking for a programmer to start a new project with (with me doing just art and music, so I can devote all my time into making proper animations and soundtracks).
- Whilst trying to fix bugs quickly, I forgot to link the end of the game to the credits before I uploaded it. The boss scene just restarted. Fixed now though.

Sweet! Thanks for pointing that out. It doesn't feel like quite as much of a failure as it initially did and I've recieved some good crit - I'm ready to start something else now.

I'll start a new devlog when I've got something substantial.
