Hi all,
I've decided to make the prototype of Lights Off, Locks Locked publicly searchable on itch.io.
To be honest, it's now been nearly 2 months since I looked at this, and haven't really had the will to build a bigger version. The extended plans for the "full" game haven't really resulted in anything that was much more exciting to play, in terms of puzzles and scenarios; nor does it lend itself to a humorous subversiveness that I would also look to create. Unless I suddenly get a lot of feedback (and I'm not delusional about the quality!) I'll probably pause this for now. Plus I don't really, even with the world it is today, have the time to sit down and create a masterpiece.
The original plan for this was to see what I could do in a week for the Weekly Game Jam, and I did learn a lot. If nothing else it's provided me with a lot of coding tips and tools for future endeavours, and I could potentially join in a future jam - possibly even with the confidence to join a team and do amazing things! (Read: not amazing). I'm also really thinking about the next thing I want to try and make, which shouldn't take long to be a "complete" thing.
Uh... stay safe out there.
