Happy to see I fail the no arfid no vegans American food test
Sad to realise the timing notifies a new era of insomnia
I platinum'd two games this weekend so still a win?
Drop Duchy has too many achievements, doubt the night will be enough for a third

Finally played @halfmermaid.co 's Immortality and locked in for 20 hours of raw and emotional detective work.
I am so glad I played this. It's the soul follow-up to Her Story and Telling Lies.
The story's scale is both staggering and contained, and the narrative design was sublime. A masterpiece 🌟

Thankfully, Red can mitigate the arrival of her mental bankruptcy with social survival tools, including the all-powerful 🫧BUBBLE MODES🫧
When going somewhere, you can pick Red's balance between being open to potential social interactions and staying focused on the task at hand.

Red, our main character, faces the day-to-day challenge of trying to do everything, everywhere, all at once: to do so, she has to juggle not only the stats she's honing, but her Mental Energy, a stat that goes up and down ALL THE TIME
Social interaction? Pay Mental Energy.
Training? Pay.
Exam? Pay.

Rain Code has to be one of the most misogynistic games I've played in a while 😬
Female characters are either:
-Pretty, into makeup and fashion
-Pretty, extremely dumb or two-faced
-Pretty, with money-driven ethics
-Pretty, horny, women-hating, jealous, constantly self-objectifying
-Kid

MMS is a life sim. As a designer with a kink for metaphorical systems, I drew a parallel between the robotic optimisation depicted in the genre and my own life approach as an autistic person.

I'm happy to say that our playtesters have been tortured on a regular basis - which is the point of the game!
Having to balance your social life, boss fights and the timed objectives of academic tests build an anxiety-inducing ecosystem of choices.
Next week, we'll dive into the design logic of it!

I then playtested the story flow of our prototype to check how well this system fit within it.
Without spoiling too much of the story, these two pictures:
-After sacrificing all relationships to obliterate boss fights
-After realizing no one was willing to help in a subsequent and crucial story beat

As a designer, I'm of the Legos-beads-and-paper house: I LOVE paper prototypes and MMS was a great fit.
I did the first playtests with friends then expanded to strangers (yay discord communities), focusing on the replayability and storytelling around these tiny challenges of combo optimisation.

Had the pleasure of attending a workshop by queer Peruvian XR artist Claudix Vanesix, which went from the basics of VR to in-depth editing tips and filming the Châtelet neighbourhood in 360 (extreme seasickness ensued)
