Okay, So What's Next?

Tip Tap Cat Updates

Since completion of Tip Tap Cat I have actually received a lot of feedback from family and friends who have been playing it. Surprisingly, most of the feedback has been complimentary mixed with some much appreciated constructive points. Therefore, I would really like to spend the remainder of November taking it easy on the game dev side and maybe push an update or two to Tip Tap Cat based off the feedback.

Additionally, I would really like to understand more about how to increase my games presence and reach. This is something I am not too concerned about right now with Tip Tap Cat (especially since it is a free game that I made in a month for fun), but this is something I would like to have a better understanding of once (more like if) I decide to try and make a full fledged game and want to release it commercially. The route I will probably be going with this is by leveraging Apple Search Ads and Google Ads to try and increase the reach of my game to other people outside of my friends and family. Further, I just created a Twitter account @cedar_cat where I will be posting my dev logs from here and some other updates as I go. This will be to try and boost my presence online and see if anyone is interested in what I am doing.

The social media aspect of game dev is one I truly do not like to take part it. However, it seems this is the ideal way for people to get to know what you are making. I hope these steps turn out to be worth it for my development efforts. Maybe then someone else can use them as tips for helping to boost there game dev presence as well!

New Logo

Very small, but I don't really like how the logo for Cedar Cat Studios looks from afar. I may want to update it a bit to be more friendly and attractive to they eye when glanced at on a phone or computer and it is a small icon.

What's the next game?

As I said above, I would like to take the remainder of the month of November to just do relaxed updates and try a few non-gamedev things in this jam. However, I did find a perfect Game Jame to take part in for December, Game Devcember. I am really looking forward to this jam, especially since it seems really low key and has a small but welcoming community to get to know during the jam. 

Until then, I will post back with any updates I make to Tip Tap Cat and look forward Game Devcember!
