I quit my job at the bank after a bad experience. With no source of income I started to develop this game. After 3 days in, I thought to myself "who am I kidding? I won't be able to sell this and make money" so I went job hunting and found the job I work today (3 years in).
Although it looks like it only have one level, it doesn't. I wrote a level generator for it.
I did spend a lot of time working on things that don't matter, for instance screen orientation. My goal was to have one game that i could sell in any platform, mobile or desktop.
Maybe I'll finish it someday.
