RE: Development of Goblin Tower 13k for Steem Monsters Game Jam

[selfvotejustice]

Thank you @mys for your interesting game and interesting development story.

I tried the game at
https://mys.github.io/goblin-tower-13k/
and it is easy to play and interesting.

I don't know at all about game development,
but your decision about game engine is interesting.

"During research I had dilemma whether should I create my own game engine or use existing one. Finally realized that there is no time to think about engines and chosed kontra.js as as base. There is good presentation about the statement "Coding own game engine is the worst idea in the world" by Michał Budzyński. Author says we should decide if we want to make game engine OR make a game."

There are many such cases in life.

The Wright brothers also had to decide whether they will develop the efficient and light small engine or the airplane itself.

Their decision to focus on the flying and control made them the first flying humans.

Bye the way,
How is the game related to Steem ?
I am asking because I don't know why the game has Steem Monster in its name ?
