Here’s the video for 7DFPS. It’s not great, but it covers the important bits. I’m still not too happy about the whole affair. I achieved what I set out to do, but I’m not satisfied with the quality of it. It’s just not much of a game. Whatever, I ain’t going back to it.

So what’s this blog post about? Future plans, of course.

I’m just gonna bullet point the current plans for the year, with dates where applicable.

  • In the coming days: Year end roundup post
  • Jan 20th: Global Game Jam
  • February: SMG Asset release
  • June 4th – 6th: Demo Day 62, new Cybersurfer demo
  • Summer/Autumn: Cybersurfer Early Access release, new branding, and title also
  • December: 7DFPS

That’s the brief overview of the year. There will of course be other things than Cybersurfer and game jams. I’m hoping to catch up with side projects like reworking Rotaction and learning more about Blender. Doing more projects with Godot and possibly GB Studio are also planned. But none of these have definitive dates associated with them. I’ll get to them when and if I’m available.

This is year is make or break for me at this point. I need to focus on what I’m good at get stuff out there.

As for other things, well, I’m replacing my PC case at some point in the next week or two. I got a Fractal Pop XL Air case to replace the 12-year-old Lian Li one that I have. The fans and LEDs are dying on it, and it’s falling apart in places. With the Ryzen 5800X3D chip inside it getting extremely warm while using the stock cooler I got from the Ryzen 2700, it really is time for me to switch it out.

I’ve never done water cooling before, but the AIO solutions seem simple enough to install these days. I hope it all goes well. But I’ve been through this before, and something usually breaks.

I hope you look forward to my year-end roundup post coming in the next few days.
