Wahoo! All over for 'the game'. Loved doing the challenge and will do it again :-) BTW I am here because of the little bit of Python Podcast inspired me into it!!!!

Here's the + and -'s from the experience - personal and technical.

Positives:
  • I have produced a reasonably complete game with 40 levels.
  • It was managed without late nights or sacrificing much family life.
  • It's a reasonably unusual idea for a game.
  • Great support from community.
  • I may finish the game off sometime.
  • Great fun to take part.
Negatives
  • Graphics are truly awful!
  • Only limited sound and no music.
  • No game completion screen.
  • Missing game elements - bonus treasures and health boosts.
  • No windows installer (I'd like to have done this but too much like the day job!)
  • Did I mention the Graphics are truly awful!
  • The code is such a hack.
Looking forward to some feedback from the crowd. No award winner but hope you have some fun playing with it.
