New Trailer, and Impending Release

5 years ago424 words

Here's the final trailer, which I've finally published to YouTube!

It's not perfect, but it'll do. I've wasted enough time tweaking it as it is. It'll be tricky to change at this point because YouTube doesn't allow for editing videos directly.



I still need to address a handful of bugs I've been putting off for a while, but for the most part, I think I can say this game is done? I'm nervous about how it'll be received, of course (have I ever mentioned that???), but I'm not sure what more I can do at this point. It isn't as if I can completely redesign the thing.

I'll start spending some time just developing ideas for what I can work on next. I've already come up with a few over the past few months, but they're all just vague concepts without any specifics planned out. I'll likely flesh out and then post about a few, so then I can gauge interest before I start rather than devoting months to something people might not even like.

Also, I've not written about this really, but I've spent much of the past few weeks developing various personal tools and techniques to attempt to cope with my mental issues, since it's not as if I'm getting therapy at the moment or anything (I wrote months ago about seeing a therapist person who said I'd be referred... but I'm still waiting for a response about that; it seems to take forever). Results have been mixed, but some of the tools I've developed should help me focus and achieve things more quickly on my next project. Though I also won't have the crippling fatigue from radiotherapy and brain surgery hanging over me in the same way next time.

I'm also hoping that Sindrel Song might do well enough that I can consider changing my life situation, but I've honestly no idea whether that's going to happen. I suppose all I can do is wait and see whether the negative comments I've already got represent a majority or a minority.

I'll also probably write a review type of post at some point about what I've learned during the past few months working on this, as I've learned a lot.



There are some comments on a few of the recent posts that I'd like to reply to, but they're pretty in-depth so I've not had the time/energy lately because I've been focusing on all this (or too tired to do anything). So I'll get to those soon, hopefully.
