Finished the intro to Sea++.
It's acceptably beautiful. Will def return to it.
Working on the tutorial area.

Do you know TvTropes?
It's an awesome website, and actually a super-good way of connecting people to content they're interested in.
Someone made an Open Sorcery page. I spruced it up a little, but it could use more trope examples.
If you have a moment, I'd super appreciate it if your could add stuff you remember and like about the game to the page:

Introductions and Podcasts
I've started Open Sorcery 2.
I have completed the intro and planned out the first area and setup a vague plan for the game.
The intro is currently NOT BEAUTIFUL ENOUGH.
Intros are very important.
----
Also: Ken Gagne of IndieSider interviewed me for his podcast!
I got to talk about my game and interactive fiction for like an hour. Ken asked thoughtful questions that made me think and edited out all my mistakes. It was pretty much the best.
Check it out below on youtube or on your favorite podcasting service.

The Future and Funbuns
PAX is done. Most of the OS errors are handled. I've started work on "Open Sorcery 2: Sea++".
It will be a Water-themed game. I anticipate it being longer and more open than OS. A little more like 16W2KaV@McD.
I have a vague sense it will take a year to make, but I thought the original OS would take a month to make. So, take my estimates with a grain of salt.

Funbuns created by the steam user currently known as a kind, caring skeleton.

PAX East
I am leaving tomorrow to attend PAX East!
I have a booth for Open Sorcery in the Indie MEGABOOTH.
Come and visit me if you are also there!
I am trotting out the old, familiar riddles because Boston has yet to solve them.
Will post pictures.

Next Steps
Okay. Open Sorcery is out.
Here is what is coming next:
----
1. Lots of work fixing all the bugs that have come to light now that a lot more people are playing the game on a new platform. I also have requests for a x86 version and a port for linux, which I am going to try to satisfy.
----
2. I really enjoy making tiny games. So to relieve the stress of working advertising/business stuff over the last month, I made an Undertale fan twine called Clean Hands:

This is actually a fan game based on a fan comic of Undertale:

I'm pretty meta.

3. I will be spending the next few months experimenting with advertising.
I will post any banner ads I think are amusing.
