October 2025 News: May I Live in Uninteresting Times? Please?

Hello, friends!

Do you, uh. Do you ever feel like you’ve been living in an unprecedented moment in your country’s history for almost the last decade and you’re ready to live in precedented times again?

Just curious.

September went by both fast and slow, and now it’s time for Spooky Season! Nice to have the normal horrors available to us again. I’ve spent the last month working on a smaller game that’s almost entirely mechanics-focused, because that’s one of the big roadblocks I’ve been struggling with. It needs at least another month in the proverbial oven, but I’m excited about the progress I’m making! More news to come on that front.

I think that gamedev is where I’m keeping my focus for the rest of the year. I had ambitions for a while after starting a day* job that I’d be able to work there and balance multiple projects, but at this point, I’m happy if I make any progress at all in a given week. If there are any wealthy benefactors out there looking to be a patron of the arts, please let me know and I’ll happily be a benefactee!

Short update this month. Hope y’all are well, or at least surviving. Hang in there, friends.

Love,
Josh

*I wish my shifts were consistent enough to always be during the day…
