Thank you so much for your time and feedback, it's super helpful. I'm finishing your videos and will rework the trailer. Really appreciate you taking the time.
Also, I'm joining your panel @ IndieGameBusiness in a few mins — looking forward to it.

Went through some of @derek-lieu.com trailer advice (thanks to the person who tagged him on my old post where I was completely lost)

I did used old footage, and it’s still not where it needs to be, but it’s definitely better now

How do people describe our game:

- It was going great until the floor disappeared.
- Shared lives? More like shared doom.
- Teamwork is required, friendships are optional.

keep seeing #portfolioday here
don’t think I told you, and we’re six months in..

we’re not a studio but friends, out of jobs, no funding. this whole thing runs on our savings. the goal is to finish the game, not sell our soul, and be proud of what we made.
bonus if we can start another one after.
