Loving it! Loving it all! The spreadsheets, the feedback, the sticky little problems the team are waiting for you to write the way out of. I remind myself: "what are you here on this earth to do?" I mutter. "This." And get right back into it. I remember my death. It's coming! "So what are you going to do about it?" Comes the inner whisper. I mutter "This!" and get right back into it. If I worry about what other people think, I try to raise my gaze all the way out past the heat death of the universe. This! Mmm, I love it.

Ultimately, you have to put your ego aside and try to enjoy the ride. This advice from Charlene Putney (in The Game Narrative Kaleidoscope by @inkle.co) feels worthy of printing out and sticking on the wall.

garblegamer writes a review for Oil Pit, a post apocalyptic science fiction CYOA roguelike:

Great story! It intrigued me very quickly and I had fun finding all the branching story paths. I did keep getting mega unlucky when I didn't have enough hunter guards to feed everyone though. I had multiple cascading failures from that situation where the first to starve were the hunter guard, that then caused more shortages, to which more hunter guards starved, which again meant there wasn't enough food, so more hunter guards died! so unlucky. I learnt my lesson and was well stocked on hunter guards every play through after that.

I only use my "following" feed and unfollow / mute people who share things related to politics regularly. Seeing cool art instead of depressing shit is motivating!

That said, focusing on yourself and gamedev is always good imo. Hope you have a healthy, productive time
