Here is the progress comparison:
DAY 9 vs DAY 30
My notes:
Modeling is much easier and I can actually create things I like :) I think cohesion improved a lot, and overall look is way better.
Next up: Characters!

Also to #gamedev s, think a good amount when you decide to make a multiplayer game. Testing your game becomes quite a bit harder, as well as adding "quick" fixes QoL improvements to your game.
