Oddbean new post about login | logout Yes I am just gonna keep the random jam updates coming tonight because I am home alone with nobody else to chunter at. Got my game idea set, I think! Although I can already see the scope getting out of hand so need to spend the next half hour taking that down a notch. Defrosting some celebratory cake that I'm not allowed to scoff until I've made at least one meaningful commit <-- pro motivation strat.
@9ddd61cd Following your jam prep posts with interest (and rooting for you! 😃). Wish I could do a jam (#RainbowJam23 or #EpicMegaJam maybe) but it'll take me time to retask. Finally put my low-level, non-game coding aside today after solid months and am sifting through half-finished projs and unmoored ideas, looking for a way back in. Going to limber up with a simple, fresh, LITTLE piece tomorrow. 🤓
@a1bd68ef Haha, thanks! Honestly I feel you, the only way I can even think about doing this one is because it's two weeks long and hopefully I can come up with a scope that takes significantly less than two weeks. Good luck with whatever you decide to work on. As long as we're making *something* we're doing good.
@9ddd61cd Top-tier motivational technique… https://cdn.masto.host/mastodongamedevplace/media_attachments/files/111/032/001/586/625/606/original/30bfea22e731a1c4.webp
@d7e41a87 Thanks I was pretty proud of myself. Although some would say cake after midnight is not very grownup behaviour. (to those people I say, "pffft!")
Wandered off to get a drink and forgot to be there for the official start, oops! Still, only 5 minutes wasted 😅 https://cdn.masto.host/mastodongamedevplace/media_attachments/files/111/032/035/399/770/053/original/aa15e24e4de21d6e.png
