extremely well-detailed (and wonderfully-made!) guide to COVID protocol for 2026.
i know none of us want to imagine it, but COVID is very much still around. i've lost family to COVID, and several loved ones STILL suffer from ongoing "Long COVID" symptoms today.
please be safe and responsible!

“Every chain of transmission that is broken is VALUABLE. Every person that doesn’t GET SICK, that doesn’t lose that WEEK OF WORK, that doesn’t become DISABLED or DIE, from the minorest of inconveniences, to the GREATEST of losses: every single one of those things is VALUABLE.” -Becca on DEATH PANEL podcast 2/16/23.

In times of trouble, make art.
Particularly, make bad art.
Bad art leads to good art.
I always hated my watercolours. I liked using them, but hated how the image would look.
This is the first time I've been happy with my layering of colours.

Worked with a dev once who was VERY resistant to any sort of feedback for this exact reason. Finally had someone play it who said they assumed the story was about something it VERY much was not intended to be, and I think that was the shock he needed to realize the importance of feedback and testing
I see devs get prickly about playtesting because they're afraid of being "focus grouped" or having the edges sanded off.
The point of playtesting is to see if what you intended was what the player actually experienced, and there's no other way to find this out than putting it in front of someone.

just a bedtime thought, but it's wild how often people in the gaming industry are not properly credited for their work on games they worked on!
always remember to keep a personal list of your games and contributions so you can vouch for yourself!
