I've been avoiding this game. It's my first baby, the first project I started as a game dev, and I'm not giving up on it.
But the saying 'familiarity breeds contempt' is applicable here, and I simply can't bring myself with any ounce of sincerity to actually actively work on the last few issues it has.
Right now, I'm down to a saving issue, which comes down to my lack of understanding and experience in that department, and a small issue where the full screen toggle doesn't work. Outside any other issues that might arise once I'm past these ones.
Alongside that, I diverted my attention elsewhere to other game ideas I had, because I needed a palate cleanse. I was and still am dreading working on this one, so in the meantime I've completed 3 minor horror games that I'm waiting to release, Mukbang, The Hippo, and The Grave Keeper, until I'm finished playtesting The Grave Keeper and doing minor bug fixes on The Hippo.
Proof I can start and complete projects. Just... this one is... hard.
So. I'm not going to promise a release soon, and I don't know when I'm going to have the strength and mental fortitude to push past this road block I have with Rainbow, but I'm hoping soon.
This weekend, I'm super sick and trying to pick away at small tasks. I might have the wherewithal to look at some issues tomorrow, we'll see.
Thanks all for reading! Hope to see you soon.
