Game Dev Isn’t Always Glamorous: Here’s the Truth - Musta̶c̶h̶e Dev Weekly Update #15

Welcome Back!

Welcome to the 15th Musta̶c̶h̶e Dev Weekly Update, where I share with you the progress I’ve made over the last week and the challenges I’ve encountered.

This past week, I made zero progress on both Ryu’s Revenge and ScaleUp.
I thought about skipping this weekly update, but I couldn’t seem to find “skipping” in my dictionary.


Ryu’s Revenge Progress 🥷

A Personal Update 🙋‍♂️

Well, I’ve been a little down lately.
You can probably guess that school has played a big part in that.
And yes, I’m in the middle of some stupid monthly exams. But as much as I hate school, let’s just not talk about that…


It’s true that I’ve been feeling down, but now I realize that…

“Fall seven times, stand up eight.”


And whatever my current circumstances are,

“Life is ten percent what happens and ninety percent how you respond to it.”


As Thomas A. Edison once said:

“Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.”


So I guess:

“It’s okay to fall as long as you always get up.”

I don’t know who said that; I just made it up…


That’s pretty much it. Sorry for not having any progress. Thanks for reading, and see you next week!


Who Am I❓

I’m Mohamed, known as Mustache Dev. For the last 4 years (since 2021), I’ve been making games solo using only my mobile phone.
I’m currently working on Ryu’s Revenge, my biggest project so far. It’s a 2D action platformer about a ninja slime named Ryu, seeking revenge for his family and entire clan after a brutal betrayal.

If you add Ryu’s Revenge to your collection, you’ll be notified when the free demo is out and when the full game is released.

Adding Ryu’s Revenge to your collection (and liking this post) is the best way to support me. Thanks ❤️
