every time I restart my steamdeck I fear it will never turn back on

no other “high end” device gives me less confidence as a user

do you really need custom tool to design the scoring system for your golf game?

probably not, but... we have one anyway!

The Progress Monster The progress that can be measured is not the true progress

what does it mean to make progress in art?
when does consistency become stagnation?
what makes the process meaningful?

all these questions, and more, in my latest reflection

Initially we set out to make a hardcore bullet-hell.

Then, for a while, we were making a chill game where you amble through the woods making friends.

Now we've sort of ended up making a hardcore bullet-hell, where you *frenetically* amble through the woods making friends.

it's so relaxing to just sit and dial in visual details, can you spot everything I changed?

Really Illegal Golf on Steam A stealth golf adventure in places nobody dared to take golf. Slip past security and line up risky shots. Tee up in cities, beaches, ski resorts, military sites and more. Keep quiet and sink it under ...

The magic of golf is that it can take on elements of any genre - your idea kinda reminds me of store.steampowered.com/app/4115520/...
