Start off the day with the warm-up
SMBX Post Mortem
Video games can be a deep and meaningful exoerience. when I was a kid, I played Super Mario Brothers until I developed a callus on my thumb. I could beat the game with one life. The game to me was that good. Are you willing to get that serious in your next project with GDevelop? How were your work habits on this project? Is there anything you need to modify in order to get to where you want to be? How can you improve for your next project? Did you give yourself enough time to come up with ideas or did you just have to run with it? Did you learn anything that will help improve your next project? This is where you decide what you need to do to get where you want to go. You have to have a plan, once your have a plan, it's not just a dream anymore.
