    So awesome. Really enjoying the journey. I don't know what you're talking about, this looks amazing, especially as a solo dev on evenings and weekends! I'm so impressed. But I also have so many questions! What's your gaming industry day job? Which did you learn first, programming or art? Why did you choose roguelike? Why did you choose the Civil War? Is Endeavor the final title? The assets look so good and the concepts sound really fun and like a really unique blend. I'm personally not a fan of roguelikes or Poker, but the combination sounds like a real uncompromised passion project and I'm excited to see where it goes.

    I’d say this is tremendous progress for a 100 day side project. Others work for years and fizzle out at some point.
  • @RedxAx2
    As I said, underrated. I don't even think I need to tell you to keep going. You will be unstoppable.
  • I like how positive and excited you are! You transmit that energy to others. The game looks very good, impressive actually when you have that much responsibility. Keep working on it when you can and keep on making videos about it’s progress.
  • @Danielle-ob5px
    Can't wait to play, Zeb! It's looking really good so far.
  • @StaredownGames
    You are NAILING aesthetics! I like the camera view. I feel like I'm looking at toys. I want to play with them. Questions.... will there be horses? More importantly, can we FISH?
  • @neilgooge
    I personally think that's an impressive achievement for 100 days. I would argue anyone who is questioning your progress likely hasn't made a single thing before and only watches other people make stuff on youtube... ;) Great job, I look forward to seeing the future progress... :)
  • @kairufr
    You did really good for only 100 days keep up the great work man
  • @bobgreen2741
    Thanks for posting the video to show off your process and progress. Looking great so far. ❤
  • @alexboyd2693
    That looks cool, Zeb! Can't wait to try it out! I'd be happy to try that vertical slice. Love the idea for the setting too, I haven't heard of many games with that setting, and certainly not an RPG style game. Keep it up!
  • @Ironroc
    Hey this is coming along great! I'm in the same boat when it comes to limited time after work and on weekends to get my game done, and I think you're doing fantastic. keep it up! And good job on the video.
  • This is awesome! Lotsa creative ideas. Really enjoyed following along and will continue ;)
  • @alexthatguyy
    Looks brilliant so far! Love that Zelda art style! Can't wait to see it on Steam!
  • GG on the progress! I'll totally get this, but only if one of the upgrades available is unlocking T posing, orb shooting ghost mode!
  • @10thGaming
    Progress like this, next to a full time job and especially next to a family is insane! Hats off mate, don't give up and this is a succes story in the making. Very fun setting, clearly based on personal passion for a particular game type. Can't wait to see more!
  • @EchoFlux
    Very Cool stuff! I love the look of the game. I like the ambition to put a bunch of unlikely features into a roguelike. I am excited to see where this goes as a dev myself!
