About

This was my second  PyWeek competition since #6 way back in 2008. I entered one week before the competition when I found out I would be temporarily unemployed because of the Corona Virus epidemic and would have time to give it my full effort.  I'm so glad I did because I learned and accomplished so much!!!

Special thanks to @jtrip for being a friend and beta tester on the journey

Diary Entries

What a Week!

It's been a great week.  The game turned out pretty well, I just wish it could have been more original.  I think I'm more creative in the software department than the game department.  I can live with that. :)


And then there's the fact the game has only two identical levels that barely contain anything!  The time I had set aside for content creation was eaten up by the desire to create a complete game and bug fixing.  I had a whole set of issues when it came time to load the next level.

But overall it's been a pretty amazing week!  I learned soooooooooooooooo much!!!

I look forward to playing all the games that were created for the competition.  They look pretty far out!
