Continuing the jams from last night (while staying awake to pickup someone from the airport) I am continuing my journey with the Outer Wilds.
Indie web coding, records, and a soda is a great space for me.

This game might actually be the perfect game in my view. A huge part of that perfection is due to the music. Some songs still give me goosebumps or make me teary eyed.

A bit of a pivot since the last post, but rather than aircraft I'm focused on the airports themselves. I am calling this project "Kiosk" for the time being, and as weird as it seems-- the design overlaps quite a bit with "Charter", but has a much smaller scope.

After doing some post game exploration in Blue Prince last night. I accepted that this is too much game for me and unless I want to end up like Charlie and start smoking, there is no way I will see it through to the end.
Kudos to those that do though!

Similar to the GIF from earlier for #screenshotsaturday, but put this together to remind me of some of my inspiration for this project. Putting this together put a smile on my face and made me proud of my work.

I love the idea of modern indie game box art. Every game should have box art, even if they are distributed without a box.

Experimented with a plane rather than a sphere for the earth in the game, and now I can control the camera how I want to-- plus some transitions and a skybox for fun.
Focusing on finding the flow and feel for the game to get it towards a playable state.

Trying this #screenshotsaturday for the first time-- This is a greybox prototype of a flight system I have been noodling with for the past while. It's very early days, but things are starting to align with the vision in my head.
