I've got a lot of valuable feedback for my #MetroidvaniaMonth22 game. Lots of things to improve on. I hope II'll be able to improve that and make it better in my next jam game or a post-jam version.

I still find it wild that my post mortem has more than 3 times as many views as the actual game. #fromthedepths #MetroidvaniaMonth22 #MetroidvaniaMonthJam #gamedev

So far, the average participant has voted for 8 games out of 94. That's not a lot.

Time to start some organizing and planning for a potential post-jam version. If I'm gonna do it, I will do it right. #gamedev #MetroidvaniaMonthJam #MetroidvaniaMonth22

So far the average jammer only has only done 6 ratings. That's not a lot.

I didn't really plan on continuing on 'From the Depths' after the jam. This jam was only supposed to get me back into #GameDev and prove to myself that I can make an original game in that time frame.

But now the reactions have been so positive and quite a few people asked me to continue working on it, that I'm actually considering it.

I would have to basically rebuild the whole game, though. Too much spaghetti code. And I'd get rid of some add-ons.

Someone was able to cheese his way through our jam game in only about two minutes: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=eCwz4Y7ylg4&embeds_referring_euri=https%3A%2F%2Fitch.io%2Fjam%2Fmetroidvania-month-22%2Frate%2F2372652%3Fafter%3D20&source_ve_path=MjM4NTE&feature=emb_title
That's hilarious.
