https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HCpkvLCwIOI Hey everyone, I'm going to release this devlog today. It shows the process of me making some improvements to my game and concludes with a demonstration of what I have so far. I've programmed/built some new UI and also redid a lot of the sprites I was using before and I think they look …

I just have to fix some bugs, and maybe put in some ads, and this will be ready for publishing. I hope very much that the next one of these will be the trailer for my game! …
https://youtu.be/0diaah5dEqE Hi to the two of you who actually might look at this, so I've made some considerable progress this past week.
