Doing pretty okay today! Had a bout of bad anxiety but after that cleared,
doing a lot better. Tackled the notes utility again and made a little bit
of headway, though sorted() is fighting us. We'll work it out. The most
important part is that we have an idea of how to proceed now.
A game we've been excited about it in playtesting- Lords & Villeins.
Got in on the playtest group! Already spotted a few bugs and reported them.
Pretty nice as far as base builder/management games go, a little bit of
micromanaging at times but not bad. Unfortunately doesn't run native yet.
Made the case for porting it to Linux to the devs, here's to hoping they
hear us out on that. They had a Linux-compatible demo early on, so it's not
ridiculous to think about.
Other than that, didn't do too much today. Managed to crank out last week's
song a half hour before the deadline yesterday, so there's that. This
week's song is promising so far, think we're going to be very happy with
this one. It's been hit or miss making a song a week.
Been emailing back and forth with a few tildefolk- hey guys, it's appreciated!
Everyone is very nice and there are plenty of interesting conversations to be
had. Nice to finally feel like we're connecting with people here.
I keep meaning to push for other people in the brain to talk more here. It's
been mostly me because people are either shy about introductions or feel
awkward butting in on a conversation. They want to, but it's one of those
areas where social rules are unclear and we haven't learned how to handle it
properly. One of these days I'll just say "hey, the feels are yours today,
go nuts." That should break the ice. Once or twice they've wanted to add
commentary to my feels but that also feels (haha) awkward because it would
be like a dialogue as a blog post? Never really seen that outside of plural
circles and we're nervous about it. It'll happen eventually.
Maybe we could section up the feels so that we've each got our own chunks
when we want to write things? Could work. IDK, it's messy to figure out the
social rules of this sort of thing. Normally we hide outside of plural spaces.
