[E19 Spoilers] one midnight gone (Patreon)

so as of just a few minutes ago, i am more or less done with the eventing and story for the first section of victory road... out of nine. but that is also the entire first 'act' of victory road... out of three. so am i 1/9th done or 1/3 rd done??? nobody knows, not even i. this is why the scoreboard on the dev blog is not going to be updated for a while...

furthermore, i would like to hereby formally officially and unbiasedly state that minecarts were a mistake and whomever had the brilliant idea to put so many of them into victory road should be sacked.

okay... it's like, they're not difficult to event, but they do take more time and focus than anything else because i have to make sure their movement routes are right for every possible path they could take based based on things like switches the player can toggle

and uh

there's

a couple of those

that's not even all of them. and it's not counting the variables.

and that's only for two maps.

i frankly do not know how i've managed to cram all of those in and yet somehow still stay safely under the event limit, but i am not going to look that gift horsea in the mouth.

so i do have one more minecart puzzle to do but that's it, and then i have dear and legitimate hopes that all of the rest of the puzzle eventing is going to be keeki. there's really only one other i'm worried about-- the last one, go figure.

we will get there.

animation stream next week probably

i have wanted to make a post about all the drama going on in the poketube community right now... as some may have seen me mention in the main server's lobby, i've been pretty uncomfortable with it for a lot of reasons. i may still do that if i can put some words to my feelings but most of what i've got right now is some sort of sequenced combination of 'fuck' 'stop' and 'hhhhh'.

thanks for bearing with me everyone <3
