Here is a timelapse video of me working.  It is 22 hours of the 48 hour long competition.  The only parts not recorded was when my computer was off and when my screen was blank from inactivity.  Music is Escape Route by Corran on the Cave Story ReMix Project based on the music of Cave Story by Pixel.
