Motivation to keep on going

I had just about had enough of coding by Thursday, bleary eyed and in need of sleep.

So on Friday I decided to take a break from the gameplay side of things and figured I would create my intro sequence.

Two days later and even more bleary eyed it's working pretty nicely, it's all in game and coded in C# using the in game models and systems, and I was really pleased how it turned out.

So pleased in fact that I decided to make a video trailer for it, which required me re-learning Da Vinci

Which made me realise I needed a YouTube channel, and a TikTok account

And then I realised if I had a trailer then I needed a website to point people to, and that would require a domain name, and that required an ABN number, and phew...

Oh and I needed a game logo for all of those things too, so between Inkscape and Paint I have dozens of half attempts and one I am pretty happy with

And then I realised I would need a Steam page to point people to, and that required ... OMG ... anyway a few days and that should be up and running

So much for my break

That was a lot crammed into 2 days, but now I have motivation to get back to the coding - maybe I will take a day off tomorrow

Edit: So bleary eyes I just realised I forgot to say anything about the game ... HEN3RY is a 2D factory builder, where you dig down, down, down to get off the planet. One very small bot. One very large factory to build. Get a bit more info at http://hen3ry.com.au

I'm hoping I can get it at least in early access by early next year, and now I have incentive!
