After putting out the public update, I took a break. Other than fixing remaining issues and replying to people, I didn't do a lot of work for a day. Feels weird to type that, but I needed it. You guys recommended me games last year and I took some time to play more of them.

The plan is to get back to work now, though. During the bugfixing period I finished editing the other two standalone novels, so those won't be taking much of my time. The only issue is how to put them out in a way that they'll do me more good than a bit of money. So with all that cleared out, getting the next TLS update right will be my focus.

There will be more art updates, though. $10 patrons, expect an update to the post about character reference sheets sometime (you'll be notified). You can also look forward a little "human vs succubus" sketch and some of the first official scene art.

Back next week!

What games did you play?

Switched between Bastion, Rabi-Ribi, and Khimera.

If I may - there sint anything weird about this. Looks like you are falling into pretty standard process of SDLC, scaled down to your size of course, but still pretty standard stuff. In a nutshell it boils down to this: plan, dev, test, deploy, test, PR. I know some people think its too rigid and more of a guideline rather than a rule, but there are only so many ways to skin a cat effectively with repeatable results. So please just keep doing your thing :)

Shortly thereafter, Dark Art was questioned by animal control and police officers regarding the disappearance of a few hundred local cats.

If you enjoy Bastion definitely check out their other games. My favorite was Transistor. Don't work too hard, remember to take days off!

Dark Art

(Hides his skinning knife behind his back) Hey now, its for the greater good and science! Besides, cats are overrated. Dogs fo'eva!

I hope you didn't forget to have fun on your day off. You taking a day off doesn't bother me in the least since I know your work ethic is solid. So I agree with tom here don't work to hard, remember to take days off.

Decanter

Dogs, huh? So you're more of a Cruella then.

Decanter

Did you enjoy them?

Seil

Seconding Transistor. It's a great game.

sierralee

Yes, definitely. The action element of Bastion was easy to sink time into and Rabi-Ribi is good for a change of pace. Khimera I actually played earlier and enjoyed, so now I'm returning to get all the ranks/achievements.

Dark Art

Please pardon my ignorance, but whats Cruella? Tried googling it, but all i got was some pretty odd looking fashion stuff and some kind of "coming of age" movie.

Decanter

Really? When I Google it, the first result is the Wikipedia article for Cruella de Vil.

Dark Art

Got it, thanks :) Not sure if Cruella is a good synonymous for me since I honestly like dogs for their traits. As far as cats go I think that if for some strange reason I'll want someone to piss in my slippers I can do it myself, without getting a pet for it ;)
