Spooktober 26th – It’s not a Halloween game anymore
Posted: August 20, 2021 Filed under: Patreon Leave a comment »OK so the plan was to make a cool game for Halloween buuuuuut that’s not gonna happen.
The tl;dr is I’m still making a cool game, but you’ll probably get it next month instead of this month.
The reason is largely because I overestimated what I can do in a short time these days, or rather I assumed my motivation would be reasonably consistent throughout the month but it wasn’t. I ended up trying to push myself to work when it was too much and just stressed myself out unnecessarily.
Over the past few days I had started to move towards having the first half of the game done and ready so I could still meet the Halloween deadline and I do think I could do that, but not without stressing myself out further and making a worse game as a result.
I figure you’d rather see the game as good as it can be and that I don’t kill myself to release it in October.
And November needs its spooky games too, so I’m gonna give it one I guess 🙂
anyway here’s a gif of a work-in-progress location as thanks for reading;
Oh yeah and I’m still uploading a vlog every day, if you really want to see how miserable I get when I push myself too hard (I don’t recommend it tho tbh).
