Wishlist Camp Keepalive: Endless Summer - https://store.steampowered.com/app/3637630/Camp_Keepalive_Endless_Summer/
I'm behind on devlogs, but I've got one coming later this week. In the meantime, I've decided to stop worrying about art style and get back to placeholder everything. I feel much better about this decision, and it's let me nail down quite a few problem interactions. More to come! #indiedev #gamedev

Did I sit down planning to build out a few more battle scenarios? Yes.

Did I instead spend most of the day reworking pathfinding to squash some bugs and weird edge cases? Definitely.

On the plus side, new version gives me some future-proofing (and doesn't break the game). #indiedev #gamedev

Ok, I have to admit that getting a unified (albeit still placeholder) UI in place really does help make the whole thing feel way better and immediately exposes other needs. #indiedev #indiegame #solodev
