You’ve just been turned out on the streets with no money, no job, and nowhere to go. How long can you survive?

This is the premise behind a game I’ve been working on for the last couple of weeks. The goal of the game is to give people a small taste of the reality behind being homeless and what goes into some of the decisions that are made by those who live on the streets.

The experience of creating the game has been frustrating, partly because it was the first game project I began and I didn’t understand the coding process. I wanted it to be a straightforward march from beginning to finished product without recognizing that refactoring the game as you go is a normal part of the coding process.
