Devlog 13: Hourly Goals
A brand new devlog from Canada!

Last week I began breaking up working sessions into hourly goals that I needed to hit. Creating a sense of urgency really helped me get started, and with this technique, I was able to finish a lot of UI that I may not have otherwise gotten done within the week.
I'm really hoping to finish everything in Chapter 2 by next week. Currently the biggest challenges I have to completing it are needing to create three more new minigames, and making the casefile.
I will also be taking some breaks over the winter holidays, so my devlogs will briefly become a little more irregular. However it will be back to weekly posts on Tuesdays by January.
Until next time!
LockedOn.
