Time’s passed and I haven’t made any public updates, but I’ve been busy. The limbo was resolved; I was a final candidate, but the job went to someone with more domain knowledge. So it goes! I could absolutely have seen myself doing the job and finding success in that career path. Instead, as I told the friendly (really!) recruiter, thank you so much for the opportunity, and I’m going to make video games now!

It’s been a few weeks since an update. I was applying to a startup program and I wanted to be careful not to be working on the business until I was accepted; I wasn’t sure if the diary would count as a business website, so I erred on the side of caution.

I’ve been accepted into the startup program! Awkwardly, I’m also interviewing at a local business; I had an in-person yesterday, and I set aside the Godot work to focus on React. I did my best at the interview and feel it went reasonably well, but I won’t hear until next week about the outcome.
