DEVELOPER DIARY
SCRAPPING IT ALL ON DAY 3
A lesson in rapid prototyping, ruthless scoping, and trusting core design principles under tight deadlines.
THE 7-DAY CRUNCH
On Day 3 of the Brackeys Game Jam, I made a terrifying call: the initial prototype wasn't fun. I pulled the plug and completely restarted from scratch. Shifting to a hyper-focused memory teleportation survival loop saved the project and created a tight, memorable experience.
JAM LESSONS & RE-RELEASE
After a last-minute build format mishap during jam submission, post-jam iterations added dynamic enemy AI tracking, endless wave survival, and polished UI feedback on Itch.io.
