The kind of game you daydream about while at school or work because you can’t wait to come home and play some more.

My own work in progress game, an arcade style deckbuilding game with meta-progression.

The current release doesn't include the last part but the next update will introduce it.

It's so fun to try to get a high score, and the randomness gives me the "just one more go" feeling.

It's a good sign. Usually, the project I work on (no matter what they are, be it an edited video, a website etc.) just get boring in the end because of how much time I spend on them.

I feel that way about my high effort YT videos that don't even get more views than my low effort ones.

Metrics on modern centralised algorithmic social media are absolute BS. Views and general interactions are about what hooks people, not about the quality of the creations. I recommend turning them off in your client whenever possible, gonna make your life better.

That's part of what turned me off from YT. I can feel like a neverending treadmill to create content to grow the channel, even when I'm busy doing projects for university.
