Another year has gone by! It really feels like I just wrote last years article a couple months ago!

I had made a post saying I was "currently cooking" I can confirm it was because I was in fact working on a new Rusty's Emporium game but that plan became nothing despite having a working test level I just couldn't find it in me to work on it so I then started work on a sequel to 'Situation TARFU' it had full voice acting! Even featuring the likes of Ty Coker the voice of Bittergiggle in Garten of Banban they had recorded lines for TheXMan and same for the voices of M (Ladybird) and Lincoln (Kato Deville) fully acted out and ready for implementation HOWEVER despite the money and work poured into TARFU 2 I lost interest in game development...

That's right the very thing I've spent almost half of my life doing I dropped just like that, I genuinely just lost interest, interestingly this lack of interest happened a little bit after I started taking feminizing hormones I doubt they're connected but the timing is interesting, I still like my characters and the world that I built but I just don't seem to have the same passion I had before, maybe working on Linxy for 2 and a half years non stop only for it to flop might also be a culprit just genuine burnout not sure but whatever it is I still have a very creative spirit I've moved on to crocheting and diamond painting they bring me a lot of joy and I've been generally happier being away from the ol' PC hell I don't even really play video games anymore LOL

All that is to say who knows I may come back to making games I do have a lot of ready to go assets that just need a push to become a complete game so I wouldn't call my current disinterest game over yet I think I just need some time away maybe come back under a new alias online I've sorta been moving away from all my old stuff such as YouTube and Itch n' Twitter & ect ect, so keep an eye out for familiar faces under a new name it may happen someday :3

So ya usually for these yearly articles I have a lot to talk about, new projects, recent releases, a yearly wrap up but this year is different I'll more than likely still be posting these articles every year but if not these have always been my favorite to write and take me back to my constant teasers and posts about development that I used to do when I worked on PROLOGUE all those years ago.

If you have something you want to make I say go for it the sky's the limit you have the power to make entire worlds lived in by the most interesting characters you can think up, it's what I did for the longest time and I did it for that long for a reason it was AWESOME and it made me happy and excited, I was discouraged a lot and you might be too but don't listen to them start your project and kick ass!
