Designer Notes

This game was made during a game jam over the course of 48 hours.  The team was fairly small with only two of us with any experience using Unity 3D.  We each took the opportunity to explore parts of Unity we hadn’t before.  I chose to really work with the new particle system to make some special effects that would come in handy for future projects.  We had a blast making it and it didn’t turn out too bad all things considered.
