Hi everyone! Well, quick update. I'm very sad about the results on Home Alone in the @UnexpectedJam but, positive comments on it is enough. Hopefully, there will be another Unexpected Jam and will update my game nicely. The results can be seen below:

In the end my game "An Unexpected Level" didn't do very well, but it was fun to participate in #UnexpectedJam. Congratulations to the winners. #gamedev #Indiegame #game #gamedevindie #madewithunity #indiegames #gamedev #unity3d #unity #gamejam
