The value of experimentation
Added 2021-06-02 20:00:03 +0000 UTCWhen you're writing a small, nimble little game, you can fuck around and have fun; there's more of a sense of freedom and play. Because, like, this thing we're doing doesn't hardly matter.
If we make a dumb decision that no one likes, then oh no, is our 1.5¢ share price going to become a 1.4¢ share price? It's the same way that you can comfortably YOLO your life savings into Gamestop stock, when your life savings amount to forty bucks.
But then, horror of horrors; you start succeeding.
At that point, the dread starts creeping in. Now you have something to lose.
Now it is no longer safe to fail.
Sometimes you do experiments and jokes:
And then sometimes that hits you for 25% of your backers, because a lot of people silently leave.
Fellas, it is hard to keep it fresh.

I admit that, if there were a woman in the game, I might go; I clicked through the dom scene in the Mallory plotline without looking at the screen. A lot of us come to get away.
