This week is my last week at Hopscotch, and I wanted to say goodbye — or rather, a see you later!
Being a part of Team Hopscotch has been an honor. I’ve learned so much from each of you, each unique way you shine and see the world. It was so fun to play your projects and learn about your coding process. I’m especially inspired by how you uplift and support each other in this community — you help each other grow, and are so generous with sharing your knowledge.
One thing that is next in my journey is directing and composing music for a film about social impact. I’ve also received support to work on my own game this year. It was a hard decision for me to make, and it is a privilege to be able to make a decision like this especially during these times. For now I’ll be taking a leap into the unknowns and trusting where this will lead me!
So thank you for making awesome creations and courageously sharing them with the world. Create and be generous with what you know, share and teach and celebrate. I’m cheering you on as you create your own self-exporatoriums through code, art, telling your own stories. Continue being radical!
This year has been a journey. I’m humbled and honored to have contributed to the Hopscotch community. I will be working on passing my work down smoothly to the next person who can fulfill my role on the team. Hopscotch values your work and is working on more ways to share your excellent work far and wide <3
Please stay safe and healthy during this time.
Cheering you on, always!
Yours truly,
Kayla
ps: my website is in my bio so don’t hesitate to reach out if there is any way I can support you, and feel free to share cool updates on your work - I’d love to see it
It’s a road for all of us. All of us. There will be an end to everything. But do you know what doesn’t end? Friendship. Let me tell you what a true friend is. A true friend supports you, they don’t force you, they don’t hurt you and dislike you for who you are. A true friend will be with you til the end. A true friend will stick by your side even in your worst times. I have only one true friend in real life, my mother. Everyone desires things, even us. What I desire, is for you all to be there with me during my worst. What I desire, is that people will truly understand others. It’s funny how the world works. But, everyone here has been the best. And I hope you knew that Kayla. Because we will never forget you and Ana’s great company with us. We all have gone through many paths, but we aren’t going to be there forever.
really nice working with you through the seed developers programme - thank you for inspiring all of us - and for your impacts throughtout the community!
super courageous - best of luck!
until next time - perhaps when we’re seeing you accept some awards for your future game!
