Updated my game website, waste of time or?

Question is both about the website and the new design, I think it'll be useful until I get a steam page but after that I'm not sure.

After is the darker one with cursor effect

Time capsule: Diablo III | PvP gameplay Blizzcon 2010

I still watch this video once in a while, I was so looking forward to it, diablo 4 PvP was fun but it wasn't THAT, anyway I was tired of waiting I started working on my own.

First trailer for my ARPG PvP game "Darkness: Arena" what do you guys think?

Hi I'm a solo developer and I've been working on this project for some time and I feel like its ready to show, there still a lot of placeholders but I wanted some opinions on the core gameplay loop and overall idea. A game demo is coming soon, you can wishlist it on d2p8.com until I get a steam page.

I'm completely open to any and all criticism.

I'm addicted to making games?

Never thought this would be a problem but it is, long story short I worked in the industry for some time as a 3d modeler then animator but switched career after a huge opportunity, after this opportunity ended (15 years) I tried to go back in the gaming industry but my skills were rusted and the industry wasn't in good shape so instead I did a web dev course.

Towards the end all I did was make games in web pages, or tools/extensions for my favorite games, then I got an epiphany; nothing was stopping me from making my own dream game, coding always been my bottleneck. So I started and oh boy..

I've been working on it every waking moment that I can, I wake up and I'm eager to keep working on it, this rarely happens to me except for some big events or games. It should be a good thing right but it's eating on my social life and actual (and new) web dev job, I even stopped gaming completely.

I know addiction when I see it I'm already dreading having to stop so my brain does what it does best and try to find a solution to stay addicted; should I try to make it my job?

LF people to try out the gameplay loop of my wow like PvP game

It's basically wow arenas x diablo x battlerite

It's still in early development but the gameplay mechanics are all done and playable. I'm looking for either play testers who love that kind of game or any kind of artist to help with the assets.

Post any questions here or message me directly.
