Well, I just uploaded my Game Chef entry to the official submissions thread:

My entry

I'm pretty certain that most of Chapter 6. is rubbish but that's okay. It's done, it's up there and I can proudly say that I finished a good 7 hours before the deadline. Now I need to sleep!

What I will note, before heading bedwards, is that I've had a lot of fun with Game Chef in my first time entering. It's amazing just how much you can manage to get done when you have a deadline to work to, even with kids, work and other Real Life™ things getting in the way. The Three Clans is a little longer than I'd like at just shy of 13k words but that's okay. Carrying on after Game Chef is over will allow me time to do some serious editing, something that the game currently lacks. It will also give me a chance to actually playtest the thing. I'd hoped to do that on Saturday but the reality was that I wasn't far enough along to get a playtest in. It's a shame as I think the game would really have benefited but there's no point beating myself up over it. In the end I've achieved what I set out to do and I'm happy with the final result.

Feel free to check it out (bearing in mind that the format of GC this year required the submitting of games in plain .txt format, hence the rather basic nature of the submission.)
