One thing I enjoy about working on a project where I set all the goals and decide what to work on and when, is that sometimes you just want to do something pointless but interesting, like building a working analog wall clock instead of something that contributes to finishing. #ScreenshotSaturday

Happy anniversary, Great God Grove! Can you believe it's been 30 years already? I dug out my old strategy guide for the occasion. It's fragile, so I only scanned a bit in, but isn't it nostalgic?

It is done.
This took about two years from research to release, and I doubt I’ll ever make something of this scope ever again. I’m so thankful to everyone who supported me.
Grab a cup of your favorite beverage, curl up in a cozy space, and enjoy.
