Bit of a quiet week for me, It’s hard to enjoy games the way I like when half such thoughts get cut off by ‘you need to make games’… so it’s read typescript textbook dot dot employ some strategy dot dot for me. will get the conspiracy of lemurs going to multitask a bunch of games once I can put that behind me but am tiding over upholding Trimps for now (help?) Non incrementally this week, Sylvie released funeral song for the Elemental lords… I played this for about two and a half days, toying lightly with the mechanics. If you are at all interested in platformers or specifically if the rule of elemental lords preventing your health sounds like a plausible theory… then your line to cashing in a positive comment is clear.

I think the real answer is your own memory… I hope that doesn’t sound too ridiculous but yea trawling around any way you can think and remembering to some extent for later is the way to go… can add I was lucky to find this japanese wiki which is quite detailed if you could read it https://w.atwiki.jp/clickeridle, I also can say because you’d never know there are some being made in minecraft on the hypixel server’s housing feature, the archivism aspect of that is the concept for a nightmare for sure but if the idea of a mariomaker esque incremental engine in minecraft feels like a good artstyle to look at then go for it. as a say most of them get deleted so its only memories to me… oops for answering what are the most obscure sources you know but that is what makes sense to me to say

So, this week I played some more active games- I went back to Generator incremental where I had reached this layer that involves upgrades that require your basic resource to be in the negatives and you have to use the resets to switch it around… this is one of many special features in the game however it’s on roblox which i am not so familiar with and did get my progress deleted at one point… still it exists in my mind as like this slightly crazier Dodecadragons where you have to rotate the screen aswell (pretty much 2d).

Went onto continue Shark incremental which i guess is similar to the grass cutting incremental web port so kindof makes sense… however it’s because i want ‘themed games’, and that played out with interest in watching this shark theme become more abstract and hopeless to imagine but it is still nice trying to feel it at each step and watching how it gets overturned and develops…not feeling descriptive apparently but basically i enjoyed it…

Have been seeking for the idle aspects to that though and haven’t really found them, maybe do need to exclusively look in the long games, so need to be aware of the interest in serious idle skill vs getting overturned in the reward aspects… Haven’t done this exactly well with Trimps, where I now learned to love maps… the diamond symbols make me start to feel like i am in a demon world/monsterkillers … etc started to attune to reward aspects… but also the kindof strategies you can try for being ready to idle are fun for me though not lost on that you can play completely active… I think in my search for idle it is the optimization that is important so getting comfortable and decisive with a grind is similar enough for what i want mentally, with dealing with the way the game shakes it around as gameplay. so yea its all very exciting to me…

Also got a bit farther with Profectus, now in addition to being able to run it… i can solve all the red dependency errors, was shock horror finding that you have to manually make a declaration to each function…feel better about it now, the docs being like ‘just look at the code’ is respectable… once i understand some of the functions that are special to the advanced saving i should be good, got the persistence working by remembering to also manually add the returns, the tutorial doesn’t talk about it is why it was like a discovery, anyway basically yea gradually making more sense. am skilling to be able to dip into looking at it and noting things, to have as an activity it in more casual times and be more connected, which should work…
