This does not include planning, compiling or uploading your game, only time spent actively creating the game. The theme for the jam was ‘You gain a little, you lose a little’.

I used Unity for this project, and created a voxel rendering system which was able to generate a set of triangular meshes, with the correct textures applied, to represent an inputted three dimensional array of blocks, which had been generated using smooth noise functions....
