This game was made by someone who has a grade 9 math education and who's life experience with coding consists of nothing really.
My expectations going in were both that this process would be way harder and way easier at the same time; I expected to grasp the tools quickly and have a ton of work to do, instead it turns out the grasping was the hard part but once grasped success came rapidly.
I have produced something and that something is a game with a beginning, middle, and end. This is more than I ever could have hoped.
