Life is hard, take care of yourself, you're better at this than you think, and none of us know what we are doing. If you'd like to support me and my channel further, please checkout my upcoming game Hexagod: store.steampowered.com/app/3059390/Hexagod/

By the way, I love this game. The problem is that the demo is too short

"It's hard to be a human on this planet" Absolutely agree! I've been around 60+ years and I keep thinking it'll get easy some day... but I'm still waiting

Happy this resonated with you and congrats on making it to 60+ years, that is not a feat we all get to do. Cheers!

Dude. I'm a stay at home dad and my girl just turned 2. Today is my birthday at 41 and my wife tried so hard to give us all a good weekend. Our girl didn't let us sleep last night, she didn't take normal naps today or yesterday, and made our lives hell. I'm tired and grumpy and tired of being grumpy but being a parent is incredibly difficult. My wife has a great job and can take care of all of us so i should feel grateful to be a stay at home dad since it's so many dads dream. I have felt like I've never known what I'm doing for so many things in my life and coped well with it but this time it feels like utter failure. Your video has some great timing. I can only hope tomorrow will be better and force myself to wake up with a positive mindset.

So true. I don't know what I'm doing 99.9 percent of the time. We are all just out here winging it, doing the best we can.

I felt that way for a long time, I'm just recently starting to have a clear idea of where I want to lead my life and the things around me. I'm 36, two small kids, a partner, and a full time job that I don't like.. but I don't know, maybe it's aging, maybe is being a parent (which is the hardest thing one can imagine), maybe is just an illusion, but I'm starting to see pattern in life that I couldn't see before.. I'm just hopeful for the future, that's it. Probably what you're missing here is an understanding of why you do the things you do and what are the things that you want to achieve to feel better.. instead of "not knowing" where you're going to be five years from now (which is very scary), you should think at what you WANT to be five years from now.. then deconstruct the path that is going to lead you there and just have fun flollowing it..basically work backward, instead of forward.. maybe I'm just making things easier than they are.. that's just a thought! Take care

I appreciate this level of candidness that you displayed. For someone trying to learn game dev or anything creative, this is super reassuring. Thanks.

Love the content, dude. I know you said in a previous video that you don't want to be a "KZbinr that makes games" but a "game developer that makes KZbin videos." I do hope you keep making videos though, there's been a lot of good advice in them this far.

My cousin shared this with me as motivation. I usually don’t watch these but here I am in the comments. I have to say that this was a fantastic piece. I will be utilizing this video to help spread some encouragement to those around me. Thanks for taking the time to make the video and thanks for making me feel a little better. Now I’m off to do more stuff I have no clue how to do 😂

Life is the same for everyone! It’s impossible to avoid feeling lost because we are, by default, lost. I don’t want to preach because this is a game dev space but there is a way to be found and never feel lost again. I’ve been through it all and now I’m at peace with everything… and while it means this worldly experience has been dampened, I no longer have any fear for myself or my future. It’s a pleasant place to be. If you ever want to know more just ask.

While I am not a game developer, I have been doing tech journalism for 10 years. Tried switching to KZbin but there are people who are too expert and then I find myself back to working on websites. Not settled even after 10 years and every day is hard and I struggle through anxiety and fear of tomorrow for my family.

You don't have to know what you are doing to have joy. Since humans are made in the image of God and we have sinned against our creator who sustains us in his power and glory. We can have joy in ALL THINGS when we realize the previous statement and repent(turn from sin) and believe in Jesus. Believe that Jesus who is God made a way for us to be reconciled to himself by not just sweeping our sins under the rug but taking the punishment on himself so that we can be made holy in his sight. When we do that and we see that an all knowing, all powerful God who created everything is sovereign over all things. We can have joy in all things like not knowing what we are doing because what we are doing is for the glory of God and the joy of his people.
