Very interesting! I have a few questions:

1) Is this your first time releasing your game to the public? 2) How were you able to focus on such a project for so long? 3) I've never made a game before, do you have any tips for me? (Comfortable with code + design)

1) Yes actually. And it's my second game XD

2) It was very painful. I actually lost the whole game once from a hard drive failure and had to remake it whole. I guess I had to learn to use version control sometime lol

3)

A: Focus on the fun.

B: Just start working, even if you're not in the mood. Sometimes you're not in the mood until you're actually doing it.

C: Accept that restarting from scratch is actually awesome because you can make it even better using everything new you learned. I actually have it part of my process now.

D: Learn some back stretches lol. Those long nights coding tear up your lower back D:

Awesome! Thanks for sharing.
