Interesting concept! It would be great to see what you must build, but it was done in 48h so it's ok.

Ok, help me out here XD. Windows 7 user having some issues getting this running.

- Downloaded&Installed Python: http://www.python.org/download/ (grabbed 64 bit win ver)
- Downloaded&Installed Pygame: http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pygame (grabbed py33 64 bit).
- download and extract archive (CTRL+S downloads it)
- clicked 'BreakdownCountdown.py'

I get stuck at:

E:\Downloads\Blayne_LD27_reakdownCountdown>E:\development\Python33\python.exe BreakdownCountdown.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "BreakdownCountdown.py", line 20, in <module>

@DaanVanYperen It looks as though you are using Python 3.3, which is too new for this game. Download Python 2.7.5 instead, and you might have more luck!

A good start, but it isn't really playable... I couldn't work out what I was supposed to do, and there was no time to work it out!

Sorry, won't install Python.

Pack it with a runtime and your game will be tested by a lot more people.

It was very confusing, but I launched a rocket, hooray!

Nice work! This is the poorman's Kerbal. Hah. Good job on photoshopping the background. Haha! It took me a few tries to launch. Nice sounds. Slightly below average graphics. Fit the theme very well. Keep it up! I hope you make more stuff in the future. 6/10; Not bad for a ~18 hour build.
