· 668 words · 4 minute read

I forgot to make a post with my entire list of goals for the year, but I did capture it over on Player One Podcast. I’ll just reiterate them here, and report what was finished for them. I’m definitely not loading myself up in 2019 like I did in 2018. It was right down to the wire on if I would finish my last goal or not. I spent 20 hours playing on new years eve just to finish the last game.
