I chose to make this project because...

Chose to make this project in order to learn a new programming language that would help me in the future. I chose to make this project because I wanted to challenge myself to learn a new programming language.

What I found difficult and how I worked it out

Up until this point I had been using Python and decided to get myself a book on how to learn and use C#. The project was supposed to be a proof of concept but then I really enjoyed making the game

Next time, I would...

Overall, I feel I made a pretty good game for my first-time implementing C#. Although, there are a few things that I would change if I had more time. I wish I had enough time to design more enemies, give them an animation and balance them to create a better user experience.

Judge Feedback

This is such a fun looking game James, and the level of time and effort that has clearly gone into getting it to where it’s at is undeniably impressive. Amazing work on seizing the opportunity to learn a new coding language, and how better to do it than throwing yourself in at the deep end with a proper hands-on gaming challenge. This is a proper triumph and I wish you all the best for developing more awesome games in the future!
