Steam Page Work

I've been slowed down quite a bit about indecision and I guess fear or uncertainty regarding my steam page work. I am not happy with the game as it is, it's not done. It's not. And of course I know sometimes we can just continuously add work and add more work but I have a vision and I want to see it completed. 

So filming the trailer etc, I want more stuff in it, but I don't have that stuff even planned out yet. And I've decided to do the capsule work myself. So I've just been sitting on my ass avoiding the work because it's just new territory and it makes me uncomfortable. But the thing is I just have to do this work, it's not a bad thing, nobody is going to slap me if it isn't perfect. It's just going to be what it is and also it's better to just move on things rather than sit there and try to imagine what the perfect decision might be.

So, finally, after 3 or 4 days of straight up not working on this, I got myself together and put together a draft of the main capsule. And to be honest I kind of like it. The thing is, yes, this is not going to be illustrated by some genius or master artist. It's going to be just what it is. And that's totally fine! I need to get this page done so that I can make the game actually good. I need to just get it up and out there so that I can turn my focus to making this the best thing I can.

I may back out of next fest. I am not at all required to participate - in fact it's pretty clear that waiting until the next one is the right move. 

We'll see though.

Anyway here's the capsule WIP! I actually like it a lot.
