You can email me the source when its ready. I also promise to give you helpful feedback on what you need to finish the game, and the gameplay in general. I’d definitely want to check it out.

If it doesn't bother them, then I am making a problem where there is none. If it does, then I know I need to fix it. Either way, I really need to release this game. Thanks for the advice, Keith!

I mean truely incomplete? a missing escape key, some status screen you failed or something? If not then i'd say don't worry about anything else in this game. I would say it was complete, when it has a menu, and the game itself has all the features you want in it. And you can exit it :-) Then look at an element of the game you would want to improve, (pick only one) and then work on that element's functionality first... then build your next game with it. Then when finished with that one, pick another feature. Build a library up for yourself of all those things. Eventually you'll just be able to pick and choose functions that you need and be cranking out games in no time (or at the very least be able to focus on a specific game feature that doesn't go into the library).
