What's good?
It sure is a new week. The new first graders have arrived and suddenly the class is so much fuller than before. I was running around reminding kids of their tasks all day. But it was mostly fun and games.
What kind of media does a kid consume to sit on a chair and make constant finger guns and even do a reloading motion with their hands?
Good Luck are an excellent band. I love their record Without Hesitation quite a lot. It's been more than ten years since that record was released. Same goes for Ritual. I interviewed the drummer last week and it was interesting to hear what needs to happen for a band to start again after ten years. And especially for a band whose name has not really grown in that time.
- being bored is hard and I am not good at it
- I am in the market for a new gimmick
- this episode of One Shot is excellent and makes me really happy I backed the Cosmic Century Knights kickstarter! Will I ever get to play it? Who knows. I'll take those blades with me into other games for sure.
- are you a farmer or a builder?
- such cool art, and it is freeeee
Which brings me to me trying to make a Zungeon. My little notebook is full of dungeons that are drawn and not keyed. And now I have keyed one and when I started to type it up I immediately ran out of steam. I immediately felt like it was not great, didn't look good on the page and stopped working on it.
It is all bullshit of course. Just today I told the kids in class to just draw and not think about the way it does not look like the thing you imagined in your head. I want to ride the high of the TWG Game Jam and actually produce something. Make my own jam? I don't know yet. So I'll just keep on drawing dungeons. Better than looking at the phone in the subway.
