day #3 state: finished
I added a title screen and a win condition. I also have a monster now and when it appears gravity reverses and the Allefant title music plays :D
I also got some other songs and apparently the old .abc music parser I was using has a bug and played everything wrong, but luckily I have someone around who immediately heard it and we found a way to work around it :)

Gameplay is coming along nicely... I might attempt some of the stretch goals like a monster chasing the kids.

day #1 state
Come on kids! Recess is over!
Meet Ms. Teacher and her school class. No game logic implemented yet, but I have a vague idea what I want to do.

starting slow
The screenshot may not look like it, but in the first 10 hours of the competition I implemented a 2d platform engine. The red circle is the player, who can run and jump and collide with the brown walls.
I also got a haircut, went to Tim Hortons, cooked lunch, went clothes shopping with my fiancee... the times where I could get 72 hours to concentrate on just my speedhack entry are long gone :(
My game idea is, you are a teacher who must get all the children back to the classroom after break (rule #1). To do so you will have to type what you say to them (rule #2). But be careful or they start crying (rule #3 and #4). And a 2D side-scrolling platformer obviously is a distortion of real 3D physics (rule #5).
