Why do solo game devs choose to spend years on a single project? Wouldn't it be faster to just hire a team? In this devlog, I put that advice to the test and bring on a 15-year industry professional to codevelop new tools and maps for Project Feline's demo. The results will shock you!

Project Feline is a high-speed parkour action game with precise momentum-based movement and a 2000's anime art style. Play as Gabi, a feline-human fugitive searching for her lost family. This documentary series explores my journey as an emerging indie game developer building my dream game from start to finish.
