Holy cow finally. I have rewritten all that introductory stuff so many times trying to strike the right tone, so I hope I did it! Feels like trying to thread a needle with a rocket launcher from a mile away.
Hence begins this series, where I will go through everything I did to create my Star Anise PICO-8 game, diversions and all! This is basically what I was going to turn into a book, except in a form that is less mindnumbing to write and release. I hope it's entertaining and/or helpful!
And as a bonus, here is a release post on the game that I wrote six friggin months ago but never pulled the trigger on, and also a release post for Cherry Kisses that is long overdue and that I am really only writing right now because I happened to link to it in the gamedev post.
I am going to sleep forever now goodbye
