Hmm. Well, it's a game!

I think you've realized most of the problems with your game already, based on what I read in your description. So I won't spend too much time talking about the bad. How about the good?

This is your first Ludum Dare, and you decided to tackle it with a custom-made HTML5 engine? That's awesome! There's also quite a bit to like about this game: you've got nice state switching, functional menus set up the game, graphics that communicate what's going on.

Glad you entered the Dare! Nobody said your first entry had to be perfect, and I assume you'll only get better for the next Dare!

Yep

My post-mortem has the good things... lol
There honestly weren't a lot that I observed.

Originally it was an"engine" I decided the term "library" or "framework" was more suited. And thanks (:

Oh, I tend to *menacingly wrings hands*

p.s.
I'm anything but depressed or discouraged from this. I am thrilled to improve upon this! I probably will try finishing it, but I need to set some serious time aside, and perhaps the assistance of a good pixel artist. There of course are all kinds of stuff I look forward to improving or changing with the library and other games made with it. I'm currently working on adding some more of those useful features to the library, and some extras.

p.p.s.
I should update the info on this thing...lol

Nice work getting this out! Sounds like you gave yourself an amazing amount of work. Cool that you got something out anyway!

Aims are simple, transformation mechanic is straightforward. Good job on the enemy AI.

Eh, I got distracted... a lot...XD
Yep, more than I was expecting, I'll admit

@Gamepopper:
Thx.
Nothing fancy about the AI, really, just two randomizers...lol. But thx
