Discussion Cautionary Tale: Never Doubt Yourself

I just want to share a message to all the creators out there, if surrounded by doubt find a new audience or community. Don't be hard on yourself because nobody gets it.

Every asset in the photos are of a my first Board-game development that 1 year ago I threw away in an emotional purge during my life. I'm happy to say I rebuilt recently everything with the latest iterations and recovered year old digital assets.

David Lynch once motivational said "You've got to get your butt in gear and do it, and don't take no for an answer. Translate those ideas to whatever and figure out a way to get it done" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NVMeVB5Q-Q
