I found my way to a design process on this game which I talk a bit about on the podcast here, if you're interested. I might do a design retrospective at some point.
Thank you for taking the time to write this, I appreciated reading it. Glad you felt the beginning of the game worked, I went through a series of ideas there and am happy with where it ended up. And also glad to hear you were left wanting more at the end. Thanks for playing!
Thanks for taking the time to write this, and I'm glad you found the game! Yeah it was a labor of love to complete. I think PICO-8 constraints also help keep games a little more reasonable in scope. Cheers!
