Many of you know I’ve been working at a coffee shop for the last year, paying off my debt and workin’, and making games mostly on the side. Well, in a few weeks that’s going to shift from part time coffee shop\/ gaming hobby to part time game maker.
\n
\nAt that point I’ll have enough money to survive for a while. I’ll still be working at the shop, but making considerably less. But it’ll give me the chance to finally pursuit my game making at a much larger pace than I’ve ever done. And that both excites and terrifies me.
\n
\nBut you know something, game making is something I want to do forever. It causes an immense amount of joy to see an idea being fleshed out and played by lots of people, which is more satisfying than making a Carmel Macchiato to perfection, obviously. Which I can totally do blindfolded at this point.
\n
\nAnyways the point of this post is to let you know that by the end of the month, I’ll be able to put in a serious amount of time into games, which means more blog and game updates, more games, more everything. The art and music of Neptune Gasoline is complete, and I look forward to sharing more about that game, including the release date, by the end of the month as well. And I look forward to being poor again until the games can pay the bills for the first time. With the impending release of Game Maker Studio, which will allow me to publish to iOS, Android, and Windows\/Mac all at once….well, you can guess where my future titles are going to land next.
