Thank you for the positive feedback! It’s comforting that you share the sentiment that I got from friends. I was always commited to doing in depth devlogs, but it’s demanding. I hope to create an intimate bond with the players; a long journey we embark on together. It also helps me to making sense of my ideas.

On the subject, I recommend Jordan Mechner’s making of journals: Fascinating accounts of the joys and struggles of creation, but also a touching window into another era that I remember fondly.  

In fact, I’ve been thinking about making a small number of boxed copies of the game with printed manual and feelies, in the tradition of the eighties. And then maybe compiling all the logs into a book as part of that crowdfunding campaign, as a higher tier reward, or a stretch goal.
