Thanks Ryan! I wish there was more success (obviously) butI feel good about it and learned a ton. It will help me with the next one I’m working on.

Releasing my first game taught me a lot.

Finishing is hard — the last 10% felt like 90%.
Not everyone will get your vision.
If you don’t believe in it, no one will.
Publisher rejection can hurt

My first game didn’t sell much, but it’s done — and that’s worth celebrating.

Working on something new... I'll be dropping info on it soon but wanted to share a little teaser of some art sketches I am working on.

I can tell you there will be some crime and shady things going on in this mouse city....
