Continuing the jams from last night (while staying awake to pickup someone from the airport) I am continuing my journey with the Outer Wilds.

Indie web coding, records, and a soda is a great space for me.

This game might actually be the perfect game in my view. A huge part of that perfection is due to the music. Some songs still give me goosebumps or make me teary eyed.

Record 1: @yasunorimitsuda.procyon-studio.com and Millennial Fair.

Love this album. One particular song gets me everytime. All the best feels.

Yes, yes. A very fine vintage, indeed.

A bit of a pivot since the last post, but rather than aircraft I'm focused on the airports themselves. I am calling this project "Kiosk" for the time being, and as weird as it seems-- the design overlaps quite a bit with "Charter", but has a much smaller scope.

Dear Canadians, go vote. It is important.

Early polling is open this weekend. Election day is coming up.

So please, go vote.

Yesterday learned more about the legal/business side of #gamedev at a local event.

Just a reminder to the other #indiedev folks that there is more to making games than just making games.

LOL-- well it turns out that animated GIFs don't animate if you upload them through the image function. 😓

Trying it again-- this time with the video actually playable!

(Thanks to @sam-aru.bsky.social for pointing it out to me)

Similar to the GIF from earlier for #screenshotsaturday, but put this together to remind me of some of my inspiration for this project. Putting this together put a smile on my face and made me proud of my work.

Any Aerobiz players out there? 😄🛫

Experimented with a plane rather than a sphere for the earth in the game, and now I can control the camera how I want to-- plus some transitions and a skybox for fun.

Focusing on finding the flow and feel for the game to get it towards a playable state.

Trying this #screenshotsaturday for the first time-- This is a greybox prototype of a flight system I have been noodling with for the past while. It's very early days, but things are starting to align with the vision in my head.

Tonight on "Vinyl Playing While Doing Laundry" this beautiful album with arrangements from Chrono Trigger, complete with lyrics.

I love this album. Side D always gives me goosebumps and all of the feels.

Today is a good day.

Bought an old video game. Met a friend for a late lunch. Rode a double decker bus.

Sometimes you just need to appreciate the simple things.

This is a moment worth catching on the internets.
