Hey everybody!

This last week, I feel like I've tapped into some fount of inspiration and I can't stop coming up with new ideas for things. Usually, this is great. But i have SO many ideas right now and just not enough time to make everything. I write down what I can, saving it until later, but my mind has been going full overdrive, which is actually making it difficult to sleep or concentrate on things. But, overall, still a good thing. Much better to have too many ideas than none.

I think the inspiration is mostly coming from playing more D&D and other tabletop games, both with friends and solo. It's kinda crazy how fast that kickstarts ideas in your mind. I've had this idea for another new game, or maybe just a reformatting of a game idea I already had, and I couldn't stop thinking about it, so I actually spend the last couple of days writing and coding the game and got a surprisingly large amount of it done.

I'm sure this inspiration won't last forever, so it's good to tap into it while I can and get those ideas down, then when I come back to it later, it'll already be half-done and I can jump back onto it pretty quickly. I'm fairly certain that you guys will see the results of this work at some point. I really do feel like this will be a game that I release in the somewhat-near future.

Besides all of that, there hasn't really been much going on with me. It's still too hot to go out and do anything. I had to fix a toilet this week (the seal between tank and bowl had gotten old and started leaking). Still playing through Baldur's Gate 3. That's about it really.

Hope you all are doing amazing and have a fantastic week! Love ya!
