What does success look like for your current project? #Devruary Success is the friends we made along the way. 
How do you deal with burnout? #Devruary
Honestly? I just... step away. Stop coding. 
The irony is that as a game dev, I rarely have time to actually PLAY games anymore. So when burnout hits, I try to play games that are nothing like what I'm developing.
What's your favorite game that does a lot with a simple idea? #GJAsks Say No! More! The game is literally just pressing one button to yell "NO!" at your coworkers, and somehow that's one of the most cathartic and hilarious experiences I've ever had!

's Chunky JUMP! is a survival-horror platformer where you must survive through the night on your BIRD BOY.
But beware... the Ghabbit is hunting and you must restore power before it's too late!

What advice would you give a new dev? #Devruary START. SMALL.
I'm talking Flappy Bird, Brick Breaker, Pong level small.
Trying to make GTA 20 as your first project? That's a one-way ticket to burnout town. Walk before you run.

What’s the biggest dev mistake you’ve made? #Devruary Not leaving doomed projects sooner, skipping version control early on, and... GetComponent() in Update(). 
I wasn't born a coding genius, okay?? And I guess we've all been there, right?? ...RIGHT?? 
Which game dev inspires you most? #Devruary
Scott Cawthon. The man took a simple mechanic and iconic characters and created a CULTURAL PHENOMENON.
Don't agree with everything he stands for, but his creativity as a dev is undeniable.
