Last year’s resolutions didn’t all work out. I have to admit that I forgot about them, and a week or so ago I remembered that I had written a post listing my resolutions for the year.
I did actually form a formal company, but it took me months later than I originally planned. Instead of Oracle’s Eye, I finished Pong and will finish Space Invaders. I played a number of games over the course of the year, including games that I never had a chance to play when they were originally released such as Mega Man and Prince of Persia: Sands of Time. Once again, I didn’t read 52 books for the year, but there was a period of time towards the end of the year when eating and breathing were all I could do between sleep cycles.
But what about for the coming year?
- I want to sell my first game.
- I want to create a backup system to replace the one that died last year.
- I want to become proficient with autotools, such as autoconf and automake.
- I want to be able to walk up multiple flights of stairs without feeling winded.
- I want to form at least one good, productive, and/or useful habit per month.
I will try to post about my plans to accomplish each of these resolutions later in the week. I am keeping these resolutions in a list that I will check daily instead of keeping them solely in this blog post. B-)
Happy New Year!
I want to sell my first game.
I think you need to figure out what that first game will be ASAP. You also need to figure out what you’re going to do about art, sound and other content that you probably can’t produce yourself, at least not at a professional level.
Happy New Year :).
