EBF5: Tipis

Last scene, and it’s one of my favourites!
I think I’ve got enough assets now to build a world.

Next up I’ll port over the EBF4 map code and program some new puzzle mechanics, which hopefully won’t take too long. For the most part the map system is not changing very much.

In other news: As of the end of the Steam sale, Epic Battle Fantasy 4 has sold over 100k units in total! (not counting bundles)

Also EBF5 is 60% done.

Scottish Borders

I spent the weekend in a tiny village in the Scottish countryside with Ronja and 12 best friends. It was a bit rough for a spoiled city brat like myself, but I managed.

The highlight of the trip was a bunch of us bathing in a freezing river, and trying to mount an unstable unicorn float while battling against the current. Fun stuff.

There was also a field of donkeys next to our house, which provided some amusement as they stared at us and made silly donkey sounds.

I think the most striking realisation from the trip was how much healthier life is without internet and hundreds of distractions. Whenever I had a moment to spare, I’d either take a walk, clean up a bit, or find some silly traditional game to play with my friends. Much better use of time than checking my phone constantly like an addict. There was much less on my mind, which I think is something many people need these days.

I need to incorporate more of that feeling into my regular city life.
