A new year begins, and I will start by looking back on the old one! One year ago I made a post about my plans for 2022 [1]. Let's see how that went.
> Play more video games.
Hmm. I certainly did play some video games, but not that many new ones. Definitely not one each month as I seemed to have planned, but I think I probably played a healthy amount?
> Make video games.
I did make a video game! Together with two friends we published a small game for the GoGodot game jam number three, and you can find it here [2]. The graphics and music are great (made by my team mates), while the gameplay (made by me) is too bare bones and not fun enough to be enjoyable. But it's still worth checking out for the first aspects alone! Also as far as I know nobody has finished it, so no one outside the dev team has seen the ending yet! I don't recommend playing it for that reason though, survival is based on pure luck.
I have also been working on an ambituous project, a 3D action RPG. I don't have much yet, only a half finished character being able to walk around in a courtyard and a bit of inventory management. There were more features like fighting but I haven't reimplemented the animations for the new model yet. I should set aside some time for this project regularly in 2023, I _need_ to make more progress.
> Draw.
I probably drew less in 2022 than in 2021, which wasn't a lot either.
> Do physics.
I am proud to say that I now have a degree in physics! Talking to people has helped me regain my ability to focus that I lost in the pandemic. Certainly will be doing more of this too in 2023!
> Clean my room more regularly.
While I haven't done it regularly at all, at least I cleaned my apartment in the past few days. In the coming ones I'll throw away a lot of stuff I don't need anymore to make room for the things I do need.
> Write more on my gemini capsule.
Avid followers of my capsule will know how miserably I failed in this regard :P My last entry here was in February 2022. To be honest, I don't know how much I want to utilize my page here in the future. I would still like to write more, but the inability to write in italics or embed formulas or widgets makes me want to pubish via HTTP instead. I guess we'll see.
> Exercise, eat healthy, yada yada.
The only resolution for 2022 that I achieved was to go outside every single day. The idea was to overshoot and go for walks, which I did on most days, but I intentionally set the bar very low for the daily task so wouldn't fail the whole year just because of a few bad days. It worked very well and I will be raising the bar for 2023!
Overall, I think I followed my goals better than I had expected when I wrote that post last year. Maybe this year I can improve on the points that I neglected entirely in 2022.
Have a happy new year everyone!
