    Hah yeah, Kassandra is a good analogy.

    Boy who cried wolf but no actually he was right the whole time and you just thought he was a witch.

    As to game dev: Fortunately, I have a lot of experience making mods and game modes for games, I have also worked as a software dev, and I am very much aware of, and actively catalouging, a whole bunch of useful concepts and opensource code and projects and such.

    My main ‘blocker’ right now is that I got fucking crippled in a mugging / car jacking and am still recovering… I am just in too much pain to be able to physically make the game, write the code.

    The good news there is my daily at home PT is working, things are improving every day, bit by bit… but it still may take a good chunk of time.

    So I just catalogue and basically do framing and conceptual work for how systems would work and integrate.

    I don’t expect to get rich haha, I would be happy if I ended up with a game I enjoy playing.
