whoops 😰

detours this year have been so fun tbh

right now, no one’s making customCSS for kumos because the site is changing a lot (and fast). but these tools are the foundation for a future where you can build, share, and even help shape the site’s design. who knows—your snippet might inspire a site-wide change! 😉

new feature plans:
• break customCSS into snippets
• apply multiple snippets at once
• toggle snippets on/off easily
• create themes
• share your snippets with others, or keep them private
• let others subscribe to your snippets!

sure, customCSS lets you move things we’d rather you not (looking at you, floating pumpkins 🎃), but the creative freedom it gives is way cooler than locking things down. the goal is to lean into that and make it even better.

and working out some "simulations" that allow us to run the quests 10 or 100 times, to make sure that we're seeing the kind of results that we'd like 😉

set it up so each quest gives you reputation with the NPC. We're going to make the quest shops work like the BB, where you earn each level and the items there. That way we can release new items on new levels, and you'll have to keep doing quests instead of just immediately spending your banked QP

great progress today!

some upcoming goals!

😎

rough, but coming along!

i'm still working on the very fun TCG, but more in the background. That branch has *3,000* new lines of code 😵‍💫

2. quests
we've now got all of the pieces we need on kumos to make this work, including buying from user shops! i'm going to do a 1:1 move with lots of metrics and logging, and then we can start making changes

pretty cool that I can remove all of the limits on keeping things in an 'inbox' (launched LITERALLY BEFORE GMAIL)

search works 🎉

oh the other reason that our mail table is huge?

we duplicate *every message* and put a copy in your sent folder
