HyenaTech - A look back and what the future holds.

Hello, folks.

As of the time of this post, it has been almost 100 days since HyenaTech was officially released. I wanted to make this post just to talk about how I feel about the game, and what is to be made in the future.

How do I feel about the game and how it's done?

I have a few feelings regarding HyenaTech. I will say I am very proud I finished and released this game. It is the first game I ever made with the intent of releasing and it took many months to create. It's not a masterpiece by any means, but I'm happy that I made it.  On the other hand, I am a bit annoyed with myself that the first iteration had some issues that went under my nose even after copious amounts of testing. The first version, which went by HyenaTech V1.4, did have some minor bugs, and some aspects such as the lack of an in-game tutorial,  difficulty, and that version's control scheme were not very well-received. I have since rolled out a few patches and a major update that fixes everything mentioned and adds some new things. I feel the current version (V1.5.2) is the best version of the game. To those who expressed their thoughts on those issues, thank you for your feedback. I want to make sure my games are the best they can be so all feedback is much appreciated. Other than that, I'm happy with what I've accomplished. I'd say as of now, the game has done pretty good.

Will I make more games? Will there be a HyenaTech 2?

I will absolutely be making more games. It's a hobby I enjoy and I'd love to share my creations with everyone. As for HyenaTech, I don't have plans to make a sequel yet. Without going into spoilers, the ending of HyenaTech does open up the possibility of a sequel. But, HyenaTech was made by me and a friend of mine. That friend is currently working on projects of his own and I don't want to make a sequel to HyenaTech unless both of us are making it.  However, I will say there will be more games involving Ken, the main protagonist of HyenaTech.  Allow me to explain. I've had the character Ken for a long time, even before HyenaTech's conception. I had designed Ken to be used in many different settings and I've had numerous ideas for games starring him. So, while there won't be a HyenaTech sequel anytime soon, I still plan to make games starring Ken, just not set in the HyenaTech universe.

Just figured I'd make this post to tell some thoughts I've had regarding HyenaTech and what I have plans to do with games in the future. Thank you for taking the time to read this, and have a good day. :)
