an extremely long project that went well over budgeted time. I ran into problems left and right with C++ dependencies, machine woes, and more. Another project started was skill building of marketing skills. I put effort into writing articles and posting on reddit, and as of recently dev.to which seems to be doing well. The objective was to grow the stream and according to data, the number of followers were above average for most of the weeks in November. A viewer of the stream also mentioned digging into OKR, Objectives and Key Results which I found quite interesting and plan to continue using along with SMART goals for staying on track with my indie adventure. Basically the objective describes the intention behind the goal, and key results are things that are measurable results to determine success. The key results are typically not capable of being performed with direct effort. For a more detailed breakdown of finances,

What was Learned
Persistence Will Win The
discord bot nearly killed me and I almost quit the project early on. I actually almost never even started, knowing the effort would be high. But I persisted through all the issue, and there were countless issues. But sticking with it, and getting significant help from viewers, they were all solved in the end.
