What if I were to tell you that you could both do an embedded object AND give the Soundcloud link? :O

This is true!

I know most people don't like the sound of their own voices--except for voice actors, I guess, and obviously politicians lol--but for me it's a next level thing. I cannot even TOLERATE the sound of my own voice. I don't want to say it's physically painful...but it's close.

I used to very much dislike my own voice, probably not to the same extent as you seem to describe, but getting there! I've got more used to the sound of my own voice being recorded by doing Let's Plays on Discord and forcing myself to edit a podcast (oh dear!), but not everyone ever gets used to the sound of their own voice! But don't worry too much about it. Unless it's a dream of yours to be recorded, some people can get away with not liking the sound of their own voice at all, and still live happy lives ;P

Love this, kentona <3

Idk, I think there's a case to be made against demos. As a person with both demos and completed games, releasing demos often leads you to stagnate and provides players with a half finished experience. On most of the demos I have released, I'm glad people got to play them, but I felt a lot more pride about finished projects. So at least I think not releasing a demo is an option someone should consider.

I believe #5 might be incorrect? Like, I don't think it has to be an initial release download. It just has to be a "new" download. You're correct in saying that updating an existing download would not count, however.

A new download is easy to complete. Just delete your download every year and upload a download and you'll have a "new" download (just an extreme case scenario.) That's why I used the term initial. There are of course exceptions to everything. But mostly this is going after games that add new downloads all the time that just make minor changes.

Marrend is right. The thing that qualifies you for a Misao is that you uploaded the game download in the current year. Games can get nominated for several years in a row if they update their download each year.

This article is really super cool. I didn't think about using a kanban board for an RM game. I'll try to be more wise in the future about deadlines. :o
