There are too many games that people don't wanna play

Maybe stop remaking pixel art platformers over and over again. One look at the itch.io and its very clear what kinda games there are too many of.




Pixel art platformers are easy to make and have the capacity for timeless fun. Try not to be too harsh. My kids drawings are crude but I appreciate them for what they are to me. Games and art I made as a kid and teen were also mostly for fun.

While it did cross over to excessive at some point, I learned and moved on. Now I'm not living the game dev dream of my youth but enjoying an easier life as a boring programmer/manager. And I still enjoy simple and complex games alone and with family.
