Hey thanks for playing! It was interesting to hear your thoughts on game jam games. I think I half agree with you. Making game jam games does make you rush to the point where you are compromising what you want to do but if I didn't have the limited time-frame I don't think this game would exist at all. I'm working on a much bigger more complete game at the moment so this was really a side project to take a break from my bigger project. I wouldn't have been able to spare more time away from the other project so basically it was this or nothing and I was pretty happy with what I accomplished in 9 days. I'd rather have it exist in its current form than not at all.
Understandable, on the aspect of 'something on the side', I guess, whether its to avoid 'Burnout' or to throw some spice at the steak that is your creative-life or lifestyle (Being a game dev), where spicing things with Carrots on the side because the steak is large and you want some potatoes on that plate. Food analogies always work.
Although, I am definitely a person who would just cook a single slab of salmon or steak and eat nothing else, just that hunk of meat, other people can't eat like that. Hah.
