We agree with you, Andrew Willis. That's why small groups like us are beginning to pop up! Cooperative organization is the way forward! (Deleted/Rewrote for clarity - Jo)

My #swordtember project this year is a playable game where I upload a new sword to the game everyday. Still can't believe I'm doing it, and it might not be any good, but the game exists. See you on other side. #gamedev #godot jacobgoldfarb.itch.io/swordtember

I tried redesigning Amy as a fun warmup sketch and got a little carried away 🙃 I wanted something that combined her current design with her CD design since I always liked both. #Sonic #Illustration

A day late, but I wanted to make a little holiday #illustration w/Buddy & the others. #DimBulbs #happyholidays

An illustration featuring Buddy, Rita, Hal, Dawn, & Mr. Hassler from my original series "Dim Bulbs." The group is surrounded by Mr. Hassler after shooting him with Buddy's Gloopstik Gun and decorate him like a Christmas tree. He annoyingly tells them, "You're all fired."

For any indie creators, streamers, etc., do you have any advice for making schedules & planning out projects? I want to make more time to work on my stuff, but scheduling has always been a weakness of mine so I’m trying to figure out how to balance my projects w/out overwhelming/secluding myself 😅
