Hubris

Hubris

Supreme Hubris Games is one rando trying to break free of corporate work. I'm sick of working for rich people, so I quit my job a few weeks ago after saving money for years. Game dev is often a team sport, but I think I can at least build a strong foundation on my own. There are things that can only be done by one person, and it's not like I can afford to hire anyone anyway, I barely have enough savings to pay my own way.

I've got about 18 to 30 months before my savings run out, depending on how cheaply I can live. No matter what happens, that time will be a blessing that I cannot take for granted...but I don't want this to end with that. I'm not taking a vacation. This is at least the third time I've made a blog like this. The game will be somewhere around my 12th finished game. Even with my accumulated advantages, the odds don't feel like they are in my favor, but now I will have no excuses and all the time I need, so I think that might be enough.

I hate that I need to pay for freedom like this, and I hate that it took so much to build up these savings. I hate that so many people are happy to take six figure salaries and just live on a 40 hour a week luxury treadmill instead of breaking free and doing something worthwhile.

Future posts will be more about game dev and robbing the aforementioned rich people blind, but I just wanted to make a note of where I am now, for posterities sake. I dunno what'll happen next, but I'm still happy to be taking these steps.

Next Week: I post bad art (that will slowly and unsteadily become good)

New Update is out! I kept at this one for a while, maybe longer than I needed to, but now you've got a ton of new stuff to see!

We got racing, we got big weird drone jammers, we got a new speeder thing! We got it all!

There's a ton of small changes too, and the multiplayer, while still a bit glitchy, is working dramatically better.

All in all, I'm really happy with this update, and I'd love to get your feedback on it. The next update will be properly public, but for now feel free to join the discord in the video description, you'll be able to find a download link there!

TurtleQuest!

I made a quick little guide to show how to get started on the TurtleQuest exploration puzzle in version A.6!

It's just a silly little thing, but it's also a fun challenge that will teach you a few valuable lessons about how to survive in TOMORROW FOREVER.

I got version alpha.5 out! Lots of good stuff, like vehicle customization and a mission where you need to shut down a flying truck and pull a package out of the back!

It's not ready for public alpha yet, but we're getting there, and it's very exciting.

Made a video to show off what's in the new update!

Audio mixing is kinda bad in this one but the content is good don't worry about it it'll be fixed in the next one.

There's a lot of new hacking mechanics are coming into Tomorrow Forever, so I made a video showing some of them off!

This last update was a huge jump forward, with hacking finally achieving the effectiveness that it needs to be a primary pillar of the game. The future holds more ways to hack into things, and more to do with those things once you're in, so stay tuned! I'm really happy with how these things are coming together.
