The hardest thing about finishing a game (Developing 15)
Added 2024-08-02 11:52:19 +0000 UTC"Developing is an on-going YouTube series, where I share the step-by-step process of making my first video game: Mind Over Magnet!
In this episode I finally finish my game and reveal Mind Over Magnet's release date."
Edit: Forgot to add - it's also on Nebula and Substack
Thanks to all Patrons for supporting the game and this series! Speak soon

Looking forward to the release! Might want to update the steam page "Features" tab because it mentions 60 puzzles and 6 worlds just so someone who is not following the channel does not complain. I am so happy with the progress that you have made these years, cheers!

2024-08-12 10:13:28 +0000 UTCWatching this and remembering the reason why I followed and Patreoned you was stumbling on your wonderful GMT game analyses years ago it's such a great feeling to see you reach the end of this project. Can't wait to buy and play this (on Mac so I'll possibly have to wait). Well done sir.

2024-08-02 17:54:35 +0000 UTCRecently had this experience with my dev group in our first game jam - Our scope rapidly collapsed down from our original intent as the deadline approached. It made for a good lesson, and I really appreciate this video as validation for that experience.

Please never feel like you're under-delivering, this entire run has been an incredible journey. Congrats on finishing the game, I'll be there Day One to buy!
