man, this is the real stuff you're talking about. Folks talk about art in a vacuum but it exists inside of a whole life. I can relate, have a 3 year old + 1 year old, and taking care of folks dying prematurely. But the art in you doesn't die—I think it actually evolves in important ways

though with most of my ideas it is about 80% a mood and 20% how it actually functions, so that's the real thing to prototype

fortunately making little games like this for over 10,000 years means I should be able to pull some pieces together rather quickly and test it out
