Similar stuff. Trying to get some focus thought, because I see now that the current approach isn't getting me anywhere. Too much wandering.
Trying to get better in drawing and in the same time in pixel art, but it's taking a lot of time and focus, so I think I'll try to concentrate more, in the same time, on actually doing something tangible, finishing my Bozula Block Buster game, I mean, improve in pixel art specifically by dealing with that game.
Currently working on another issue of BASIC Gaming as well. Writing a tutorial, tracking some FB projects. Actually, hoping something notable will appear. It's been a bit slow.
Glad to hear your are developing stuff, even thought it's slow. If you have any exclusive info/screenshots for BASIC Gaming, let me know.
Good luck!
