How I started my #indiegame journey:

- my fiancé : whatever happened to that #game you were making... LUCID?

Tackling small interface bugs this morning. Today, we face a bug in which the button at index 2 does not respond at index 2, it acts as index 0. It knows its index 2. *sigh* 🤔 Every other slider and button around it works fine *flips table*
