Thanks. The goal of this project was to actually get something out there, so I deliberately set myself quite a small goal. I probably got "80%" of the way there in 2-3 weekends back in March, then I got busy with some other stuff. I didn't want to let this become another project that falls to the wayside, so I then spent another ~6 weekends polishing, refining, etc in the last 2 months. It was a great learning experience, and I would 100% recommend making a game. It's such an interesting mix of programming, animation, design, art, sound.
