Results & Reflections

Only got about half of my original goals list completed however I think I prefer it that way rather than setting the goal posts lower. Overall I enjoyed the project but began to get fatigued with it towards the end. I think switching up focus from more programming based tasks to more graphics based tasks about half way through helped a lot. Looking forward to working more on this project in 2 - 4 weeks time after a brief break.

Removed ability to sell cards. Added enemy item drops. Did some work on music for game. Created an game icon. Did not manage to add any spells but did setup a framework to more easily implement them.
