If you like Reddit's 'postmortem posts' (I love them), you might be interested in reading the one I wrote a few weeks ago about Checkout!
My situation has changed a bit since I wrote it, but the hope for a career in games is still there, as much as it can be…

I'd love to be part of this 🧡
I’m an indie game dev, this year our small team of 2 release its first ever game Checkout! (now on Early Access) and we’re now working on a small VR game to learn a bit about the tech 🌊
We mostly use HacknPlan, but I still rely heavily on a physical corkboard with colored post-its. There's something very satisfying about physically moving a post-it when you finish a task, even though I also have to update the task on the HacknPlan board

if you're struggling with motivation, try setting realistic goals
like "today i will open the project folder"
or maybe even "today i will look at one (1) line of code"
We're taking a little break from Checkout! development, but don’t worry—we’ll be back sooner than you think with more fun! 😋
In the meantime, you can dive into the Space Update and try to shop your way to victory among the stars! 🌌🚀
I’d love to be able to just… post, but when I try it I feel weird 😅

A list is HackNPlan boards. It reads (from top to bottom): - Bugs - Enhancements - Major Tasks - Update 0.5.0 - VR Game (Side project) - Closed (13)
We gave ourselves a two-week deadline to work on a small VR project to learn, and it's turning out pretty well!
(It's turning out cooler than expected, but let's see if we can meet the deadline because I have my doubts… 😅)
I’ll give you a sneak peek when I can 😜

Hi! Our first game, Checkout!, is being developed in Unity. Our upcoming small VR game is also being created with Unity. We're currently a team of two full Unity devs (though we can’t promise it will always stay this way 😅)
