A moment of recognition to all you solo indie game devs silently grinding it out. Sacrificing fun and socializing in pursuit of a dream and a goal. Worrying if it's good enough. Sweating the small stuff. One night at a time. Respect. You'll get there. #gamedev #IndieGameDev

Thanks!!! I was really trying to go for a Steve Purcell vibe, but I can’t come close to the master.

the effort delta between getting something released on itch for a jam and getting something released on steam is huge

I keep finding new things I need to do

lil' Henry and Penny update!

176 of 750 lines of dialog were recorded with a messed up audio setup. I tried my best to clean the audio with Audacity and Reaper, but there's only so much you can do with bad source material. Time to get the kids back to the recording studio.
