We've reached the end of this chapter and, once again, we have made amazing progress. Over only three practical chapters, we have completed almost all of the gameplay-mechanics for our game.
We still have quite some way to go before we can say that our game is complete, there's a lot of polishing to do before we get there.

The skills we have learned in this chapter include:
We've also benefited from learning many game design skills and techniques, such as:
We've reached the stage of development where the vast majority of gameplay is in place, and most of our future tasks will involve fine-tuning and polishing our game to make it more presentable to our players.
