First of all, if you own an XBox, stop reading this, because I have something more important for you to do: Go buy Limbo. Play it right now. It’s $15, and it’s better than every game I’ve ever made, and it’s better than every game that I’ve ever played.
Anyway, I’m back from Edmonton, now, which means I’m back to my own work. I’m still in a state of never being actually satisfied with how Grief plays, so I’m gonna let the project rest for a bit and work on something else. The script is mostly finished, and I like it a lot, so that’s all good. The gameplay needs, once again, to be redesigned, though. Best course of action that I can see is to let the ideas churn for the time being, and work on another game for my contract with Armor.
At the moment, I’m calling this new game “Chivalry is Dead.” More details when things start to come together.

Nice idea with the musical instruments, that’s suuuuuuper important for learning something completely. Like you’re going to know about different materials and how sound works, thats cool. I learned about how meat dries, and now I have an idea of how things dry. Also, for the cell game, (maybe) making it more realistic, by like making it kinda like a 3d osmosis jones will make it more visceral and real. maybe. Yea but it’s gonna take you a while to make anything, just like my cousin who’s an artist, each mosaic takes like a month, depending how big it is. A big project, like on the side of a building took him like 8 months, but his work is…. rigorous and detailed and very thoughtful and carefully crafted. His works are good, old museum art good, like roman vases good. Anyway, yea it’s good that you are making your own instruments because i’m doing the same thing, but with economics. It really helps you understand precisely how the physical world works. It’s nice.
