Giving this a shot. Much queueing and sitting around to be had!

Weekend trip to Nottingham to see the mighty @earthboundmusicuk.bsky.social (If you like metal, then I highly recommend!) โ€œChronosโ€ (album) is so good!!! ๐ŸคŸ

Quick stop-off at Warhammer World. Managed to resist the urge to buy a stack of 40k goodies. (Now at home and browsing them online. ๐Ÿ˜€)

Iโ€™ve just โ€œfinishedโ€ the game on day 34. That leaves quite a few puzzles still to solve though.

Yeah, I think I want to keep going. I feel that I can see the path to the end. But unsure how, or even if, the safes factor into it. Iโ€™ve unlocked 2 of 3 that Iโ€™ve found. Love the game so far. Not perfect but could be a GOTY. Will judge when finished.

Also just done day 32. Similar feeling about the RNG but I think things have shifted from the exploration/discovery of the earlier game into runs focused on solving still-relevant puzzles or gathering info for them, rather than aiming to get to the end. Definitely a bit more of a drip feed now tho.

Trying to wind down after 8 months of intense work. Struggling to remember how to rest properly. Managed a bit of reading and guitar playing but tinkering in Jira is definitely not it!
1 week into my 4 week break. Any tips?!

Enjoy GDC if youโ€™re going.
Sadly, Iโ€™m skipping it this year. Still working on the new game and saving up the pitching effort for when itโ€™s really ready to show.
Too expensive a trip just for the jolly!
