I put the effort into the posts, but nobody reads them. They straight to the tutorials, which is fine. I&#8217;ve written to be shared. This does not mean that I will not be writing tutorials. I hope to have one or two up every week. What I am going to do is revive my newsletter. It will contain all of the latest news on my tutorials. The plan is to have it go out every Sunday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What&#8217;s Next?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I had planned on writing a new A Summoner&#8217;s  Tale tutorial. Instead, I am working on a new Eyes of the Dragon 4.0 tutorial. This tutorial continues on with encounters. I&#8217;m not certain that I will cover mobs moving in this tutorial. What I have covered so far is the ability to use different attack modes. Keep your eyes open for this tutorial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">My Projects<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>My main project is Shadow Monsters. I&#8217;m debating how I want to handle it. The more I think of it, the more I want to make it a trading card game. I like the idea more than a Pokemon clone. It will still be an immersive world, with plenty of maps, characters, and of course, cards. If this goes well, I will make a sequel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final Thoughts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It is with a heavy heart that I decided to stop posting regularly. I do appreciate every one of you who has read one of my ramblings. I will continue to post in this format when I post tutorials. However, I will not be posting on a regular basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I will be back soon with another episode of Game Programming Adventures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-purple-color\">Cynthia<\/mark><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve made the decision that I will not be posting daily.
