“When do you think you’ll be finished with your game?” Lauren asked me on the way back from the Butchery.
“I’m shooting for August,” I said.
We agreed the important thing is to make it as good as possible, and that a few months earlier or later wouldn’t really make much difference.
Today, for the first time, I constructed a really large level and played around in it. It was the first time this game had ever given me the feeling of space. It was kind of thrilling. I think it’s going to be a winner. I’m going slowly this time, building on a solid foundation, and I think it’ll pay off big.
