Yeah that may be the reason I seem to procrastinate doing it
The kind of work you’re describing feels like a highly focused type of work, must be effective but god I imagine it’s exhausting

I see, that’s the kind of positive effects I imagined it could have to write things down, especially in a daily basis (or so)
I really should commit to it, every time I write on stuff it makes me see the great picture more clearly but somehow I always procrastinate on doing it

I also know « all for that / then what » moment. Not sure how I feel about that.
I like reading your thoughts, I’d like to do the same at some point. I’ve been thinking about it for years. Would you say it help rearranging your own thoughts and create connections and ideas and all the good stuff?

Seems amazing, I can’t wait to play it! I love that you put so many things you like in it, I’ve always loved the kind of project that can accumulate lots of ideas about every kind of topic

I love it too! Some of my favorite projects I worked on were very UI-based

Yeah at some point I really want to explore this idea of games that remove mechanics as you progress. I believe there are many interesting things to do with this concept

Very interesting. I would say that some games seems to be able to keep things fresh for an huge amount of time even though you’ve seen all mechanics, like competitive games for example.
Another interesting thing is the idea of removing mechanics instead of adding new ones as you progress.

I remember David Lynch said he loved the lowres numeric camera that were maid before HD, because he loved that it was pixelated and full of noise, as it added texture to the film

I genuinely can’t comprehend why someone would use their free will to say something like that to a person…

I have my little collection of these but French edition. It’s called « Livres dont VOUS êtes le héros » in French, so like « Books in which YOU are the hero »

I’ve been obsessed with tiny minimalistic management games recently, working on some stuff myself and Build The Sun is a big inspiration toward the kind of direction I want my experiments to take

Yeah. I really want to write blog posts about design for a long time, and I want to do it in a introspective way, for myself, but each time I think ‘could share that, maybe people will be interested?’ somehow it ruins the interest for me because it adds an exterior look and I end up doing nothing

Yeah I see, a window into someone else’s creative mind, kind of

By the way, your last post on the bird app kind of convince me to spend some time here, I’m getting sick of the atmosphere there, so thank for that lol

It’s such a nice idea! Obviously it’s a very generous thing to do but you think you’ll also gains knowledge by doing that? Like, by exposing yourself to lots of different design problems and all
I’m curious
