| Topic | People rag on short games, but the way I see it, they just respect your time. |
| TheOnionKnight 01/01/20 12:02:48 PM #13 | I love short games! It's like with written fiction, you have short stories and novellas and novels. Games usually tend to lean toward the novel-length side, but they can also lean toward the short-story-length side! Both lengths have unique qualities to tap. I just played Untitled Goose Game, and that was a perfect short game. Just long enough to make its point. Doesn't wear out its welcome. But yeah, the price has to be right. $60 for a really short game isn't good. --- The owls are not what they seem. |

| TheOnionKnight 12/10/19 6:38:16 PM #5 | Some drugs are better than sex. But sex is a more consistently positive part of life. Money is a distant distant third. Nothing good about it by itself. It's just good for getting other stuff. Like drugs! --- The owls are not what they seem. |

| TheOnionKnight 12/04/19 2:48:55 PM #10 | It's true! Fast food is basically engineered to be addictive. Cut yourself off, and your taste buds will go back to normal, and you'll probably go blech next time you try most of it. --- The owls are not what they seem. |

| TheOnionKnight 11/25/19 9:25:11 PM #15 | DifferentialEquation posted... According to the article he took a great job in the private sector. So it sounds more like he learned a lot of valuable skills working in Trump's administration which made him high in demand. You're wasting actual time in your actual life that you're never gonna get back with this gimmick.

People in the industry noticed, then I started getting job offers. Suddenly it's my career. Still boggles my mind that I'm doing this for a living. spanky1 posted... Do you feel like you'll ever go back to writing regular fiction? I know in the past you were always wanting to publish actual novels, and you did a couple, didn't you? I remember one of them. Maybe. I dunno. I have so many ideas for games now! And the games industry has been much more receptive to my weird shit than the traditional literary world. --- The owls are not what they seem. |

And I'm still tying up little loose ends for the studio in Indonesia too, but the deadline/timeframe for that is not as tight. --- The owls are not what they seem. |
