Hey, folks. This is Paige. I don’t have anything to upload right now primarily due to scheduling changes. Some of it is from last week: after a short amount of time of very little wind we’re back to sandstorms again. So much for being able to take a break. BTW, I was serious about moving. It keeps getting pushed back because of other factors, but we’re moving North and out of the sand’s way as soon as possible. In fact several of the things I’ve had to work on relate tangentially to that. Some of the home repair is just fixing things that are “livable” day-to-day but should probably be fixed before a sale. Some things aren’t my decision.
Anyway, as always I have several posts started but not anything finished. I’ll have something up soon!
Charging More for a Worse Product
No, game prices don't "need" to go up. That's not how supply and demand works. Instead, the publishers need to be smarter about where they spend their money.
Overthinking Zombies
Let's ruin everyone's fun by listing all the ways in which zombies can't work, couldn't happen, and don't make sense.
Gamers Aren’t Toxic
This is a horrible narrative that undermines the hobby through crass stereotypes. The hobby is vast, gamers come from all walks of life, and you shouldn't judge ANY group by its worst members.
Good Robot Dev Blog
An ongoing series where I work on making a 2D action game from scratch.
The Truth About Piracy
What are publishers doing to fight piracy and why is it all wrong?
T w e n t y S i d e d
And now we’ve had two days of rain. Not a lot, but it’s been wet and cold. It would be nice if I didn’t know we were going straight back to hot and dry. I hate it here.
