We fight the madness


Took a little time to think. Not about the game, just to empty my head. Been racing a  mile a minute thinking about these thirsty systems and the ever growing madness of this stupid, unfair world.

In a moment of clarity I decided I will no longer be making SeaCrit a mindless murder simulator.

I look at all the decay, the corruption, the monopoly, the gaslighting, the gatekeeping, the endlessly sophomoric smarms ravaging us every day in every way and we sit here as our sh*t gets kicked in. I wake up every day trying to muster the energy to crawl to this keyboard and try to conjure enough creative juices to feed these insatiable fish. 

For what? 

To partake in sophomoric scumf*ckery? Preparing malnourishing slop for the coddled masses?

I will not feed the nihilism.

Instead of writing a little berb over here and casting it to the winds, I will be endeavoring to fill the NPC's of SeaCrit with meaningful, wholesome messages and stories that I hope have a kernel of universal truth. I might link an old fable or TV episode from which I drew inspiration, I dunno.

Not really an announcement at all really. No one plays the game, few read the blog, what's it matter? I ping pong between the excitement of believing this game is finally becoming good, to the reality that we're just fumbling around deep in a cave in the cold and dark.

 Life's a bitch and then you die. I'm already so far down this path I can't give up now. So maybe we aim for the moon and come up a little short, we end up alone and dead in a ditch across the street... BUT THAT'S BETTER THAN DEAD AND ALONE IN THE DITCH RIGHT FIVE FEET UP THE ROAD! (This is not indicative of the content I wish to include in the fish game)

Got a little UI work done today, gotta make some icons and I think I'm going to call the UI done, no need to revise it, that will come in time if this game ever ends up on the map.

Too much time thinking of what might be, most things I worry about, never happen anyway

Nothin' to do but get to work. Not sure why I have to make it such a big deal day after day, just poking at a few stupid fish... life is strange.

Get SeaCrit
