Game
Five Hours at Furcon
6 years ago

Sorry everyone, I'm stopping development on furcon.


Well, I don't think this is something worth caring about, but I might as well give some more story.

Furcon was made, as mentioned, as a joke. It was never meant to be something of quality in any measure, nor something the world would enjoy by any other measures (Including Metric).

I used it mainly to hone my skills as a developer. It's my first game ever, and I'd say it was pretty good for a first. My main reason for stopping is time. I don't have enough of it.

I spent easily upwards of 50 hours across 4 months working on Furcon. I was new and slow to being a gamedev. I've learned an amazing amount from it, including the most important lesson:

How to google coding information and find the right stack exchange site.

Joking aside, I did learn a lot, as seen in my current project. Already this project is leaps and bounds ahead of furcon, and it doesn't even have playable mechanics yet. I'm only 4 days into it.

I also want to apologise for the current state of Furcon. I hate to leave a game that doesn't work great online, but there are still merits. No one has found the secret endings yet to my knowledge. As for the buggy gameplay, I had fixed that bug, but another arose without my interference, and I was finally too discouraged to continue pushing a subpar game. It would never be good without ripping it all up and restarting, and for a game about Furcon, that's not worth it.

Had a nice run, so ladies and gentlemen, by the powers vested in me by the desire to make a witty sendoff, I dub this game canceled sis.

Back in my art school days I used to ride the 710 COPSA line from Parque Del Plata to Montevideo almost everyday. This is the Marcopolo Viaggio G4 Mercedes Benz model from the late 80s, one of the older bus models that was running on the line.

A house I've built a while ago. :)

It nicely separates the snowy biome from the grassy one.

It's built with painted Ebonstone.

I worked so hard to get all four of them to the end safely, but then...
