Hi there.

This will be just a quick update on my status. The world is pretty chaotic right now, but the only good thing for me is that I have more time to develop games. At the same time I am looking for full-time work. I also want to get into streaming more games. I've recently tested a tiny camera on YouTube live and it seems to work very well. It's not 4K quality but hey, it's not bad.

This is also a good time to make more networks and join more groups. If you're on Discord I recommend joining IndieBlitz, GameDevUnderground, ItchDiscord, IndieDiscord and Brakeys - just to name a few.

At the same time, my cat wants to be brushed, fed and taken care of. He is a great cat and helps me develop games. One day I will feature him in a game, for sure. You can see him here :)

Dev dev dev!

Oh there's so much going on right now.

R.I.P fingers, wrist, neck, shoulder, legs, bum cheeks, - basically my entire body is resisting game development.

It's not as easy as I once thought. But it is addictive. I love it when things work! The possibilities open op and the mind goes wild. I tend to write massive GDDs in .txt format 1st & then put it on a GoogleDoc to share. Even then, I hurt myself with details ha!

I want my games to be the best they possibly can be, and that takes time and money. I do get frustrated, and I have burnt a few bridges along the way. Sometimes my fault, sometimes not my fault. But the journey is amazing!

Anyway. If you have time to spare, check out my content here:
