Monthly Blog Post: Mar 2022

Thankfully, the spam has subsided significantly; I suppose it helps that I blocked all of the offending senders. But every time I cleared out my spam folder, Yahoo Mail decided to suddenly show this:

Personally, I’d consider this unwanted, and maybe a bit intrusive.

Intentionally or not, Yahoo Mail certainly knows how to deliver an ironic joke.

N Step Steve: part two

This month, I’ve been doing a lot of level design for the game. I’ve reworked and redesigned some areas that I was unhappy with.

Also, when working on one of the levels, I realized I could do a funny thing. Then I realized I could do that funny thing on several other levels, too.

Long story short: the scope of the game has increased significantly. And it’s certainly created a few headaches for me to work out.

Is this a section from my planning document, or an American Football diagram?

I hope you’ll all enjoy the extra content when the game finally launches!

Cool Links

Lately, I’ve been playing Crosscode, Bean and Nothingness, and Patrick’s Parabox. All of them are good games.

That’s all

See ya.
