Lawless Lands,
Hey everyone!
So, it's been awhile since I have posted any updates on the expansion for Lawless Lands.
Originally, I wanted to have it completed by now, but I have honestly not had much time lately to work on it. I'm in my final term of school and about to graduate with highest honors on my bachelors in computer science with a specialization in software and game development.
As you can probably guess, school is extremely time consuming right now. The good news is I only have a few more weeks left and then I graduate and can finally be done with all that.
Once that happens, I plan to focus my time and finish the expansion once and for all and then move onto my next project. I'm not releasing any details on that quite yet, but it's going to be in the Unreal Engine and I already have quite a bit of progress on it. I now have the skills, knowledge, confidence, and proficiency inside Unreal that I have been waiting for so that I can start really showing off my talents.
If that project goes well, I can continue to do this, but if not, I'll be moving on and look to link up with a larger company. I just don't know if I can live off of being an indie developer anymore. It used to work, but with all that the world faces right now and the changes to the visibility on Steam, I can barely make anything anymore.
So, as for Unrest, I have been little-by-little making progress over the past few months and have the foundation and a good bit of solid gameplay so far. I'm going to be spending a bit of time this morning on my day off to get some more work done on it.
It won't take long to continue building onto it now that I have the backend stuff finished, but I'm honestly just planning on waiting until I finish school to completely focus on finishing it up because I just don't have the time or the energy right now. My sleep schedule is a mess, I have been sick on and off from not taking proper care of myself, and stress is causing further issues. I've been focusing all of my efforts into finishing my schooling strong.
I apologize as I know many of you were looking forward to this by now, but just know that I have not abandoned the project in any way, shape, or form. It will happen, and it will be soon.
Thank you for reading and for your understanding. Also, thank you for your continued support. It means the world to me - truly.
