Hey backers,
This was quite the journey, wasn't it?
Baking cookies and making video games are similar: you find the right balance of ingredients, try to achieve good presentation without sacrificing substance, and you need to know where to deviate from the recipe to get just what you want. You also put things into the fire when you're done and agonizingly watch your meticulous work come to ruin or success in an environment far beyond your control.
Before this analogy, well... crumbles, what I'm getting at is that baking and making a video game are
nothing at all alike. Your cookies may burn if you set the timer wrong, but the longer you're making a game, the better the result - the only obstacles are resources and time. Often that can mean pulling the game back out of the fire - taking stock, improving things or adding something new to see what turns out. And that's what we're going to do!
In the words of a man with a fantastic goatee: bide your time and hold out hope.
We'll be back when the time is right. If you're interested in keeping up with what we're up to, or just want to send me horrible puns, follow us on
Twitter or
Facebook. We would be on Ello, but we don't remember our username either.
Thank you all for your support. Have a happy holiday season and enjoy it however you can. Until the next time!
