@cliffski The turns taking that long was a bug, not a feature. Gave a lot more time to hang out and drink beer.

Finally, I am tickled by the fact that the game has solitaire scenarios based on episodes of the old series. So it comes with four different counters for cute space monsters! (We're still working on Avernum 4: Greed and Glory, our next indie, turn-based fantasy RPG. It's turning out great, and late Kickstarter backing still available: )

Family Guy and American Dad fascinate me. They take place in freakish, surreal universes, running on dream logic and internal inconsistency. Yet, the characters in them are load-bearing. Once you spend time with them, they feel real. Much of it, of course, is A+ voice work.

Who did y’all like more growing up Francine from American Dad or Lois from Family Guy?

@NilusSt I considered it once a long time ago, but I prefer to do story-focused one-time experiences. Now that there are so many roguelikes, I'm happy with the decision.

@TinkerMagus Something short and nice. Increases the chance they'll come back in future. Indie devs should never slam their customers.

@whiteboysnewwor What dose of benadryl got you to this point? Because I suspect it wasn't enough.

@hell_houser This idea is not bad. A 2 hour Mouthwashing sort of thing.

I get a lot of insomnia, where I sleep 4 hours and then am wide awake. I often get up and work an hour when this happens, since, hey, I'm wide awake. This is the most focused, unbroken work I do. Like, solid gold time. It's weird.

Very sad. He was an excellent reminder that video games are an art form, and in art one person's creativity and talent can elevate a work far beyond what anyone expected. I didn't even play much Darkest Dungeon, and I think thinks in his voice all the time.
