One month to IGF! And my game is unplayable...

So, one month to the IGF submission deadline.
What have I been doing the past 11 months?
I have no idea. Sometimes projects just don't seem to move forward.



To top it all... today I had a completely stranger play my game. This is the first time somebody has played the game without knowing anything about it. I told him nothing. Just run the game and follow the tutorial.

Well, it's unplayable.
He couldn't finish level 1.
And if he got even remotely close to finishing it is because I was there helping him after seeing him struggling for 10 minutes.


I need to redo the whole tutorial.
Maybe a video? I've seen non-gamers able to play it after seeing a video of me playing and explaining it.
But a video is not what you would call a good way to do a tutorial... maybe it is in this case?

Maybe a level 0. Easier.
But i thought level 1 was so easy.
What do i know.

Sorry for the rant... just one of those days.
I realize i've barely even posted things about the game here. I'm gonna change that.
So you don't feel cheated about this post... I will show you level 1... from november 2013 to september 2014. This is the whole level. No scrolling necessary.
