I want to get back to posting everyday again. I was doing that for a bit but then I was doing like every other day and was like, that is close enough. Though if I do that, then it is easier and easier to slack! I have been getting some stuff done, so not like I am not doing anything but the amount of work on the main project I wanted to work on has been suffering.
I been having a lot of random ideas for games lately, even though I don’t got time to be working on all those ideas and they are just distractions!
I really need to get focused back on the big game I was working on. I wanted to do the big project and then things keep coming up and though I got some stuff done on side games and stuff, I have not really made much progress on that game. It was a long term project, so it isn’t a huge problem if it take a while but it also too easy to get distracted if I tell myself it is okay to have some delays!
I kind of like the rain, though my dog(a chihuahua) is always scared of it. He gets scared even if it just gets really cloudy and windy. So he spent all day like hiding today. Then I get a bunch of flash flood warnings too and that scares him too.
I put up the new game, it is a fairly short game but has a lot of mechanics. Try to keep your mind and see if you can escape the Demon Pit!
I am just cleaning up some stuff on that new game I mentioned. I will post it at the end of the month(which is only in a few days). The game will be done, but it is something I could expand on if people like that sort of thing. Though it is a game that has a lot of variations, so it is hard to test alone to make sure you can get every ending. So I need to make sure everything is working before trying to expand it.
I felt like I have not been getting a lot done recently, but then I felt inspired yesterday. So I took a break from other stuff and basically made like a whole game in the last two days! It isn’t finished but I got pretty far into it. Rather than a CYOA type game, it is a very gamey, with lots of stats and choices you make effecting your stats and stuff. I think that is what inspired me, because I had an interesting idea for game mechanics.
The mechanics are based on trying to remember who you are while being corrupted. Could probably make like a really long game based on it, but in this one is actually really intense, with you getting corrupted super fast and are just barely hanging on to not losing yourself.
Man I am kind of bummed. I got a new SSD because I only been using a harddrive and the price of them is pretty cheap these day and they are way faster. So I got one and it started having problems a few days after I got it and it just kept getting worse so I sent it back and got a replacement. I get the new one and it starts having the same problem as the other. I think what are the chances they sent me two defective SSD? Maybe it was my computer. I check everything, I check it for like over a week, messing with everything to fine the problem. Nope, it was the SSD all along and it breaks. It doesn’t work at all, just a big paperweight now.
So time to send it back and get a third one, I hope it works. I am a pretty chill sort of person, and I get that if you sell thousands of things online occasionally a defective one might slip out here and there. Two in a row though? That is a quality control issue. Man, if the third one breaks after a week or two, I am going to be pissed.
I need to free some time, this weekend or maybe next week to really hammer out a lot of stuff and get things done. I feel like things are really slowing down lately, and I need some good progress.
Like half the month has slipped by already! I really need to focus on getting some stuff down this month!
