Delicatessen
A game about listening and not listening (and another thing I have no experience with)

You're going on a blind date to a special restaurant that's especially popular for that exact purpose. The restaurant, known as Delicatessen, is
apparently so good that they guarantee that certain foods will satiate people of certain personalities! However, there's a twist; each person must
order for the other!
Therefore, you have 1 minute to listen to your date talk about themselves to glean helpful clues as to what sort of personality they might have, as
well as to acquaint yourself to the menu so you can figure out what item would best suit your date!
Also, if you're not paying enough attention to your date, it might be difficult to understand what they're saying and they may even get fed up and
leave, so be sure to at least look at them and listen often. It might also be helpful to respond to their questions by clicking on flashing text
bubbles.

After a minute passes, the waiter will return to take your order for your date. If the date likes the food, you'll be given a number representing
their final mood; otherwise, you'll simply learn that they disliked the food (unless you somehow managed to listen to them enough to counter their
dislike of the food).
Postmortem:
What went right?
+ We managed to finish quite a bit more of the project than last time. The final project resembles fairly closely what we planned to create!
+ The project also has a bit more overall polish and looks fairly nice, considering the time put in.
What went wrong?
+ There were still some things we planned to include but didn't quite get to (including some music I wanted to do).
What should change in the future?
+ I can't really say anything REALLY needs to change from this project, but we might want to pursue a different style of project/genre/etc. next time, since this project is somewhat similar to the first week's in some ways.
Play the game:
Here's the link for the final project, if you'd like to play it: http://bit.ly/1eJ5Zhx
It controls with the mouse/touch and, as far as mobile goes, at least works with iPad (dunno about other devices).
