Making a commercial game feels like having two managers in your head. One shouting at you to "do it properly" The other shouting at you to "just get it done" I hate both of them.

All of august is basically going to be finishing up the more bespoke scenes, then playtesting the full game with people either through zoom or in person. Then it's back to the teaching mines for about while i wait for the all the marketing stuff I need to do get done.

I basically have all the mechanics for the lemon basket done now. I have to draw out and implement 20 more levels and I'll have a first draft. :)

Why do we refer to the humanity and unquie parts of games as the rough edges? Surely they’re the center if they’re the best bit?

Whatever you think videogames are you’re wrong. That’s the point.
