Well, not for me. I tweaked some of the sound effects, added a story screen, not too much.

Then I edited some of the pyweek.org site code to change a few things (turn off judging until after the 24 hour upload grace period is over).

Then the deadline hit and I put together a source upload package. Which I tried out and got a bus error. Fixed, and finally uploaded my final submission! Yay!

Things I didn't get to do during the week:
  1. a switch to turn off the music
  2. much better Queen Baddie battle
  3. more props / decorations in the second and third levels
  4. "super jump" powerup which I thought might be fun
  5. a count of the "coin" pickups to count towards regaining health
  6. fix sometimes-broken circular baddie paths (sometimes they work, sometimes not so much)
  7. sloping ground
  8. some secrets :)
On the other hand I achieved my substantive goal: write a platforming game using Inkscape + SVG as the level design tool, and have some pretty effects using lepton.

With this grace period and judging delayed, it sounds like there's another day added to the competition.

It sounds like it, but it's not. I think I've made it perfectly clear that this period is for uploading entries. If critical bugs appear then they may be fixed.
