Well, I'm tired, sweaty and smelly. My laptop is a little worse for wear, as one third of it's RAM died on me during the weekend at the worst possible moment.
But somehow, I made it! I have another experimental game to add to my body of work: WitchBlaster, a sidescrolling shoot-em-up with some timetravel and disguise mechanics.
You can download it from here. I also strongly recommend you check out Terror-Misu (Which was voted to have the best art of the Auckland entries) and Cakewalk 7000 (Which was voted to be the best overall game of all of the Auckland entries). The rest of the Auckland entries can be found here.
My game was voted to have the best sound direction of the Auckland entries - though that's only because of the brilliant chip-tune-esque tracks that were provided by Josh and Damien at Thinkt studios
I can't stay for long so I'll end my post here, but Witchblaster will be added to the site soon, and I'll post a much longer entry on my thoughts. Stay tuned.

I wish you could pay for one-time-fee expansions on the dropbox. I avoid monthly costs if I can...

I would but already have done so. :)

Haha, Focus Groups aren't very useful when it comes to game development.

Pitty about your ram.. But was it worth it? :P
Yes, certainly - It was lots of fun. Will definitely post my full list of thoughts on the Global Game Jam in a few days.
k. Waits..
Well done Erik (and nice follow up post on the things you learned from this).
