[Now Released] Here have a little preview of The Sun Gem
an upcoming choose your own adventure game I'm working on for the #Commodore64 as part of a game jam
Some things I learned when making this:
- It's better to make smaller games, as my last game was a more complex one that I couldn't finish
- Developing for a retro computer is easier when you don't use a game engine (luckily I don't really like working with game engines anyways)
Edit: I released the game! Check it out here!

Yo #GameDev folks, maybe spread this one out a bit? I know very little about the fund itself / I can't vouch for it or anything, but more options to choose from is better than less when it comes to funding.
