Scott! I also love reading your thoughts about the progress, as always I try to have some time off to properly answer. Some things are from Discord, but I update itch much less frequently, so I thought I'd share here too, sorry if there's not much new! And yeah, a reaaally big part of this project (and I guess every project) is just iteration, being able to come back and revisit things I'm not 100% sure. I used to like to draw a ton when I was a kid/teen, but life catches up and when I started work I abandoned it completely, so this whole thing has been a godsend to reinvigorate my passion for it haha
And yeah, I understand. I've changed a ton of things, and every now and then I open the old Love Inn file to just move around and look at some code, and it's some kind of nostalgia even if hasn't been that long haha Some of its minimalist charm is gone, and it was a difficult decision at the time, but now I'm more invested than ever in this new thing, so I hope I can put a different kind of charm into the new stuff.
Thanks a lot for commenting Scott, I always appreciate it! Even if it's really simple, I spend a couple of hours gathering/writing this, so it's really nice to receive feedback! And thankfully everything has been going smoothly, aside from catching some colds haha
Hope you are doing excellent!
