Some folks come up with the idea to create a game in zero hours (because of daylight saving time).
So the challenge was to wait for one hour before the DST shift and make the game until the time is set to go 1 hour back.
In my case, this was 3 AM (For England and Germany 2AM).
I thought the design a few hours beforehand - I decided to make something like Icy Tower.
I knew however that the jumping and random level generation would be too much for 1 hour, so I decided to twist a bit the idea -
instead of going up (jumping), you go down (falling). Thus I called the game Fall.
I had everything set up and tried my best. Unfortunately I wasn't able to finish on time. By DST shift I had a randomly generated level,
that goes up, with new platforms being generated when the old ones go out of scope.
This is the full time lapse

The full thing took me about 4 hours to do. I had something playable by the third hour.
It was really fun and I actually completed a game this year! Woo-ho!
