Even now, i am struggling with even bringing myself to opening Unity again and doing something...

And, although times are absolute shit, to be honest, i still wanted to let you know that i am not letting go of the studio and the games that we decided to make.

i could say that i spent that time resting or trying to get my life together.

I really wished i could pull myself through all this, that things would get better, i would spend my free time on the projects so near and dear to my heart, and, hopefully, to you, but i wasn't.-

Meanwhile, i kinda got into a huge depression, which is getting worse by the day. As a result, i, unfortunately, haven't had any will or energy to work on the projects, and free time i had i preffered to spend... oh boy, the proper word would probably be procrastinating, but i really wish-

all the while, the studio i've been working in kinda went bankrupt and closed shortly after, and, as a result, you guessed it, i lost my job and wasn't able to afford to spend time on my own things

Last three months i've spent working different small jobs and looking for a proper stable one

Anyways, it has been almost four months since we've started our moving process that went oh-not-well and almost three months after the post about us resuming work on our projects... So, once again, we've lost quite a lot of funds in the process of moving due to a lot of unexpected things-

Hey. Been quite a while, huh? Unfortunately, things haven't been going great and i wanted to make a post about why there has been no updates.

P.S. this will be yet another "me whining" post, but i wanted to at least explain things, so, sorry and thank you.

Hey #PortfolioDay!

We're Zero Thoughts Studio - a small indie game studio making games like "Worm Regards" - a 3D bug collecting sandbox with charming NPCs and amazing story

and "King of the croak" - a hardcore precision platformer about a frog that wanted to climb the tallest mountain!

Hello everyone!

I am moving out.

Even though not much work has been posted during this very hard period of going through bureaucracy hell and extra work, i am very sad to say that my side of things will be paused for the period.

Hopefully i return soon โค๏ธโœˆ๏ธ

Hello everyone! Been a hot minute, eh?
Sorry for the absence, i really needed a break from extra work, due to rising stress from IRL stuff.

a TLDR pf all that happened: I wrote ~10k lines of boring code, but i do have news for future~

Couple days ago I teased something crawling in the grass. I guess it is time to finally reveal it, eh?

This little thing is called a "Heartbeetle", a japanese rhino beetle with a heart shaped body! Isn't it awesome?
