Judge feedback

• From what we've had the opportunity to see, the idea, graphics, UI, the roguelike elements, everything looked pretty amazing. It's a shame that you could not combine all those parts to make a runnable prototype. It would be great if you would finish the game because I'd love to play it! You've heard a lot about what you should and shouldn't have done, so I'll keep it short here. Thank you for your participation, I believe you learnt something from this gamejam.
• The game clearly was not finished, so there is nothing to judge (except for the UI... yes there is some, ok). I was watching the team working on the game, and from the beginning I was questioning their choice of development method. Together with the Forgotten Rails team these two teams were the only teams that didn't have anything to play in the friday evening. No colored rectangles moving, no game loop, not a single thing. The team decided to develop various things separately and combine it to a game in the last few hours of the jam. WHAAAAT? The team also made unorthodox technology choice of using rust language in Godot that led to various problems later when the Godot project had to be transferred to other team members computers, but also in the web export that doesn't work in many browsers. Nope, 48hour jam for a 6 member team should not be about waiting for some crazy algorithms (which the player probably wouldn't notice anyways) and blindly creating assets, but about putting something playable together as soon as possible, ensuring all team members can work with the project in the engine (import assets, create levels, playtest etc.) and evolving game play and atmosphere from that point while having FUN.
