DAWN OF MEGA-MONTH

Week of November 27th

Overview

The nice thing about sprints – really, one of the most defining things – is being able to  change gears quickly. After weeks of programming I essentially spent an entire week where I didn’t open up my IDE once…and it was the best decision I’ve made thus far.

An entire world poured out of my head, complete with a map, lore, context, and a whole bunch more. I can’t share a whole ton of it right now as it’s still being shaped into something coherent, but it’s rad.

Highlights

  • Sketched out a map across several mediums + had a bunch of fun
  • Came up with names and backgrounds for a lot of areas in-game
  • Brainstorming sessions went much better than expected
  • Incorporated much into ever-growing Evernote
  • MEGA-MONTH MARCHES EVER ON

Lowlights

  • Spent some more money I probably didn’t need to 🙁
  • Learned I’m still not an artist despite everything – oops
  • Ate too much
