So you know the whole war thing going on right? Yeah been affected by it because im ukrainian. We are now in finland, its pretty good here tbh but also it is a bit scary being so far away from home, and in a country where half of the people speak a language you cannot understand.

We have been quite busy here, a lot of stuff that has to be taken care of. Doesnt help that we live kinda far from the actual city and dont have any car or at least a bike so we have to get there on foot, around 1 km if i remember right.

Due to all this stuff progress on "the cool red game with skulls" has slowed down to a crawl. Ive been slowly chipping away at it for the past few weeks.

Biggest issue i ran into is that i kinda realised the game was quite monotonous and could get stale very fast so i had to restructure it a bunch and deal with all the issues that that brought in, if im honest im not sure if the game is even enjoyable to play, but hopefully itll at least not be a stale mess.

Previously you had the option to fight a miniboss instead of an arena for a load of cash, now these are mandatory and happen every 2 arenas because i realised that there wasnt actually much reason to fight them considering arenas already gave you basically the same amount of money. Arenas have also been somewhat shortened.

I have recolored everything so things dont look as samey, previously the palette was basically just 2 grays and 2 reds. Now i expanded it a bit and enjoy the look of the game much more, it should also hopefully help with visual clarity as now bullets are differently colored than enemies.

Currently i have been slowly adding "disasters" (that are definetly not stolen from streets of rogue) that act as various modifiers to arenas which should hopefully make it all a tiny bit less stale. At the momment of writing i got 4 out of around 11 total planned, though that number is very likely to change.

Well...
