I miss the Kickstarter days of Thimbleweed Park where each week I would write a blog post about how things were going and we’d to a podcast. If we were doing Thimbleweed Park today we’d have a video podcast on YouTube.

I watch a lot of YouTube videos from indie game devs where they document everything they are doing on their game with a fancy video and my first thought is: “Where do you find the time to make this”. I barely have enough time to work on my game.

Now that Death By Scrolling is getting close to releasing, I really should start blogging again about the game. There are a lot of interesting things happening and there is no reason I should keep those to myself.

I have found that as I get older I enjoy pontificating less and less. I’ve stopped doing talks, doing interviews and podcasts. I really enjoy Tim Canes YouTube channel but I could never do that. It’s not that I don’t have anything to say, it’s that I have become self-conscious that I’m just pontificating for no reason and don’t have anything deep and interesting to say.

Now that I’ve got you all primed and ready, starting next week you can plan your day around the Death By Scrolling blog update.

Or maybe I’ll delete this post like it never happened.
