Still alive. Been down since losing my dream job last year. Working in another field now to support my family — it’s not creative, so it sucks. Started working out at the gym to improve my health, but still not happy. Sadly, my game will be delayed a bit. #MentalHealth #LifeUpdate #IndieDev

✨ Little update: I recently started a new job, which is why I’ve been a bit quiet.
This means the release of Super Tennis Breakout will be slightly delayed—but I’ll soon update the demo with some fresh improvements! 🎾💥

I know it's been a while without updates — I've been focusing more on job hunting as my unemployment insurance is running out. Plus, it's summer and my kid's out of school. I'll be back to cooking (and dev stuff) soon. Thanks for your patience! 🙏 #indiedev #indiegame

Initially, I thought of a top-down racing game, but now I'm feeling inspired by classics like Breakout and Pac-Man.
