Signed.

I'm sure trufun is busy with work, his relatively new baby, and life in general. But I can't say no to signing this I'd love to see some more Golvellius updates.

Damn guys, that's awesome. All the love is much appreciated - you guys made my day!

Yeah, devving at home has definitely taken a backseat to parenting. It's a full-time job, on top of the full-time job I already have! After a day's work and time with the kiddo, it's 10PM before I have time to sit and chill. By then it's time to have a beer, play a game of the 8-bit persuasion, and call it a night.

But, trust me, I constantly think about next steps for this project. In fact, I have my next "epic" video already planned out. The challenge, translating the 2D auto-scrolling dungeons of the original game into a compelling 3D experience. My solution is pretty innovative (in my opinion) and I think it will work. I'd love to see my idea come to fruition, all I need now is time.

As many of you know, game development has always been a passion of mine, so this and other gaming projects will always find their way into my life.

Sit tight, folks, there's more fun to come!

Excellent news! You might want to try some time management techniques.
I know it helped me extend my effectiveness in a day to 150%.

Anyway, I'm really looking forward to updates. Good luck!

lol, well let's see:

7AM - wake up, feed the kiddo, get ready for work
8AM - leave for work
9AM - get to work
---work---
6PM - leave work
7PM - get home, give my wife a break from the kiddo
8PM - have dinner
9PM - family time
10PM - put the kiddo to bed
11PM - free time with my wife!
Midnight - Go to bed

I'm not bitching, I'm just saying.

Cool, well good luck on life and your little one, and can't wait for updates, your game is one that inspired me to go to 3D development

No sweat that was just plan A.

Plan B: Build a time machine.
Oh.. You don't have time to build it. Right.

Plan C is a little tricky so bear with me.
Lock your wife and kid into a crate and send them to Alaska, build time machine, go back in time before you got married or had a full time job, finish the game before you announced you'd start working on it and wait. Then stop your other self from locking your wife and kid into a crate and sending them to Alaska, kill your other self, so there's only one instance of you in this universe, release the game after this post.

Wow! That's a busy schedule for sure, your a busy man. Good luck, hope ya find time for this!

I second that notion

I knew you'd be that busy. *I* have trouble making time myself, and I don't have a wife or children.

The signage in this topic signifies work well done, and a crowd of support when you get the time again. ;p

Best of luck to you, and thanks for still frequenting the forums like that with such a busy schedule.

Weekends? Good luck mate Congratulations on the child.
