First, I&#8217;m going to do another beginner tutorial. Then I plan on finishing the next Dragon&#8217;s Claw tutorial. From there I will move onto Eyes of the Dragon and Forest Rush. In between those I want to do even more beginnertutorials. I want to expand on input, do some audio stuff, and definitely more 3D.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">My Projects<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I will be continuing work on my games. Primarily I want to finish the Quintessential Duels project and port it to Android. Other than that I want to work on Silver Prophet and get it finished. It is a lot of work in the editor though and it is very time consuming painting the maps. That&#8217;s why game studios have level designers. It&#8217;s hard work wearing all of the hats in the development of a game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final Thoughts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>2020 is rapidly approaching its end. About nine hours away from where I am right now. It was a good year in many ways. I got back into writing and working on my personal projects. The blog is looking better than ever and I&#8217;m enjoying writing it. There were also bad things, like COVID-19. Hopefully the vaccine will help end this pandemic and the world will get back to its normal horrific self. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MonoGame For The Absolute Beginner Four I have added the fourth installment of my MonoGame For The Absolute Beginner.
