We had a wonderful, exhausting time at #AdventureX this weekend!
Thanks to everyone who stopped by to play the demos, buy the books and games, listen to the talk, bend our ears about ink and generally say hello.

Other than my coffee machine, the new game features the following audio sources:
- a knife sharpening rod being slowly dragged against a butter dish
- my laser printer
- my air fryer being opened and closed
And it sounds marvellous!

I’ve been sooo happy with how things have been going for our first game in @godotengine.org!
I’ve been wondering about sharing my thoughts on my top 5-10 Godot features. Does that sound of interest to anyone?

We don't know. What we do know is the wiring diagram works. We built it, virtually, in @godotengine.org. We fed it scans of the books we found.
And the books are very, very strange. The "game" that resulted is also strange.
We're hoping people can make sense of it for us.

Today is the day to tell a strange story.
The long version we'll tell later, but the short version is this. In an attic, in his late great-uncle's house, @jon.inkle.co found a locked trunk. It took twenty years to open. Last summer he did.
Inside was a wiring diagram, and a stack of books.

Amazingly, the books I ordered far too late for Adventure X have been printed in time - so if you want a copy of the Heaven's Vault novels, we'll be selling them at our desk!
Not all of these copies though, as I can't carry this many.
