Mine Blocks Rant!

Edit: What a first post, eh? It's cringey, but it truly shows how far I've come since I started my journey here on Zanzlanz.com at the age of 15. If I thought Mine Blocks was a success mere months after starting it, then I must never overlook the value of every small achievement made after that.

While my bar clearly used to be set quite low, it helped me gain passion for game development at an early age. At that time, everything I did was exciting to me. However, I must always set the bar higher and higher, as my work is driven by learning and progress. If you're a creator too, please know that even if your first 100 creations are not going to be your best... DO be very proud of your achievements, because they are each a major step toward your life's bigger goals. Make it count, and enjoy the adventure!

In my opinion, Mine Blocks is a total success!
It has almost 2,000 views on my website, over 4,000 views on Newgrounds, and over 30 likes on Facebook. It has tons of features, thousands of lines of code, and it's the best game I've made yet.
But the problem I'm having with it, is that no one seems to understand how amazing it is. Yes there's lag. Yes it's incomplete. But that's the only thing people focus on. I see games that have blocks and a character, but that's about it. What rating do they get? 8/10. What rating do I get? 5/10. But thanks to everyone that likes my game, and supports me while I make it. You guys rock!
