Update: Navygating the Labyrinth

Hello everyone. I hope you're doing well.

It's been about a month since Proximate came out so I thought I'd update you all on what I'm doing.

In terms of projects I mentioned in the last post, I have slimmed things down somewhat in order to keep myself productive.

Life is Strange: Double Exposure is getting shelved until I have nothing else on my plate. I need to be able to sit down and focus entirely on it. Too many moving parts and swimming thoughts. I could have put everything else aside to get into it, but I figured the other projects were more pressing.

King's Quest III is a game I have played now, if not finished. Yes I hadn't actually committed myself to more than a sample of it until recently. I'm endeavouring to do it without hints or a walkthrough (breaking the seal for KQ2 and SQ hurts my Gamer Pride™) but this was a commitment made before I saw my opponent. The commenters who have posted about looking forward to this one suddenly make a lot more sense. The video will be very fun when it's done, but I have been slow with it because this game is evil. Still want to get this done and will continue to get through it. More to come when I figure out what I'm doing.

And then there are the distractions.

Blue Prince is a game I've fallen in love with and I did consider clearing my schedule to just talk about it and what it does, maybe delve into its stories and secrets contained within its gothic manor. Then I hit 20 hours without an ending in sight. Then I hit 30 hours with even more loose threads. I have had to move my notes to a new notebook because I ran out of space. I am enjoying my time with the game, maybe I will make something with the many hours of footage I have, so long as it doesn't kill me, but I should finish with the game first.

Doom: The Dark Ages isn't out, but it will also probably be a distraction. There will probably be a video but wait and see until I actually have hands on it. My current PC can't even run it according to the minimum CPU requirements, but I am looking into that...

So where does that leave me in terms of work? Why, with the third project I mentioned in the previous post of course.

Almost all of the groundwork for that project is done and I am in the writing phase.

It's a large and difficult project

but I'm sure that you will all be happy

to see what it is. It's not a game but

it is probably

to you.

I do not know when this will be completed but things are already underway. I will share more when I have more to share.

Thank you to you all for your support, and I will speak to you again soon.

Stay safe, stay brave.
