I'm creating my first game!

- Janky screenshot of progress so far: https://i.imgur.com/4afs5lv.png

- 2D single player browser game

- infinite procedural generated world

- build your starship

- manage a crew

- explore, harvest, trade and plunder the universe

- Frontend: Phaser 3 + WebGL + TypeScript https://phaser.io

- Backend: Workerthread + EliCS + TypeScript https://elixr-games.github.io/elics

- I made a Discord for it and I post daily videos of progress: https://discord.gg/FZa6w2TP

- I might open source it but since I play to make this a commercial game, I'm not sure yet. But I'm glad to help anyone with similar projects if I can

My challenges with it are:

- Keeping FPS above 60

- Art. I'm very bad with art

- Having something playable within 20 days

Imgur lies and gaslights, please don't use them.

While using a VPN, they will say "Imgur is temporarily over capacity. Please try again later." But if you don't use a VPN, then it magically works.

Sorry about that. I'll search somewhere better to post it while I don't have a website for it.

Meanwhile I found this random image upload website which might work:

Maybe over the capacity allocated for VPN originating traffic? I would never interpret a user-facing error message like that on a public site to be a reliable claim of what's actually going on in the underlying infrastructure. For any service.

		That's very charitable. I can't imagine that they would segregate bandwidth like that. I've never had Imgur work on VPN no matter the endpoint or time of day or week.
