7 hours into the @unity.com @itch.io game jam - time for sleep.
Ive started a #GameDev simulator becuase I wanted this weekend to be fun and reflective. Still early into development, working solo so if my chronic illness takes over I dont let anyone down!
Fun so far! #indiegame

#devtober was great and kept me inspired to work every day even though I have chronic health issues and often had to work from bed.
#indiegamedev is so fun. I realise how much I dont know and still have to learn too - which is exciting.

#devtober day 16 was making steam store page art, bug fixes and budget planning. The thing I love about #gamedev work is how many small different jobs there are so it never gets dull.

On day 11 of #devtober I finalised the game loop for #catadoptiontales so that the game can end when all cats are adopted and no repeat cats rather than it being a forever loop of cat adoption. Unity is awesome. Game development is so much fun. #indiegamedev #gamedev

This probably took me longer than it should have but now I can add them easily.
