Update : my gamedev journey

Hello everyone,

Remember that post I made a while back about how much I missed game development? Well, I've got an update for you!😌

Since then, I've taken the plunge and after finally finishing my Unity course, I've started a new game project using Unity. So far, it's been an exhilarating journey. Not only am I immersing myself in the challenges of conceptualization, but I'm also exploring the world of pixel art, which is a refreshing creative outlet, allowing me to have that feeling of really chilling out with some nice music and just designing my tileset. Of course, I'm aware that nothing is perfect!

Despite the heavy workload of my master's degree in software development engineering and architecture, as well as my work-study placement, I decided to devote some time to this passion project. It's not easy to reconcile school projects and game development, especially with school deadlines looming until July, but I'm determined to see this game through.

I'm finding it hard to juggle all this, and I have to admit I'm worried that all this work at school is going to put a barrier in the way of my project, or even make it run out of steam. I wanted to share this update with you all, hoping to get back to you in a few months with some positive news ahah

I hope you're all doing well and finding joy in everything you do. Stay safe! 😌

I wish you all the best of luck,
Bertrand

I love pixel art! I have dabbled with it some myself. How is your master's degree going and how is it going with your game project?
