Schedule
Between other work it meant I couldnt put the full time I wanted to into this, though generally the work time was 8 hours or less over 4 weeks, with running and coffee breaks.

I set myself up to not exceed 35 hours, which was fairly close over those 4 weeks.

Success

Reason
This never felt like I was crunching the hours, sure I worked hard in the time I put in, but I kept to the 35 a week and luckily had some of my own things to complete in that time which went towards it.
As for the cost, I didnt intend to put this priced, Its my first public release and I wanted it to be seen and enjoyed for what it is.
