@RagingAcid I wonder what would happen if it gave points for "volunteer at a soup kitchen".
Thank you for the answes everyone!
Giant spike in review counts across many games on Steam in the last 3 days. But why? Sales didn't do anything nearly that crazy, and RimWorld isn't even on sale. Anyone know what's going on?
@stbachmann Thanks!
@TwitchVancouver @JamesMattWeir Thanks :)
In Vancouver this month, any game-related events I should know about?
@henryyoung720 Honestly, designing it. But I enjoy doing code and art too. I like the whole thing really.... and maybe that's intentional.
Except tax work. Hate tax work.
@GulaGames This is a massive issue. People get emotional rewards from work they like doing; this conceals the fact that it's not the work that needs doing.
Seen many many indie devs waste years this way.
@GregorKoomey I wish I could be in such good shape, sadly not quite
@Shazeio7 Thanks :) Not sure if you meant me, but I haven't worked alone since 2013; gotta lay credit where it's due
It's a problem if an indie game dev loves any one part of the process too much.
You end up working on your favorite part all the time, instead of working on the part the game needs most.
You have to love the creation process as a whole, not any particular kind of task.
@AlexanderHell89 If the seed handling has changed, it's impossible to get it back. Butterfly effect.
@cilvet94 Just looked it up, these sound hilarious and a tiny bit RW-y.
Created by the extremely talented @estevao_pb!
@Rhopunzel RimWorld is basically a pile of these duct taped together :p
RimWorld medicine - Just as I imagined it.
@cliffski Can we short it?
@BurdenOfCommand @isoepodcast Glad you got something out of it :)
It's something I picked up from @levine a while ago. That guy consumes the most unique source material; he couldn't have made unique games like BioShock by reading the same source material as everyone else. Go weird and deep.
@curioscuro @LudeonStudios You could inspect the output_log.txt file for clues.
Or just wipe the entire install folder and reinstall. Delete all the mods too (separate folder on Steam).
My interview with In Sprite of Everything podcast is up!
Lots of game design talk about childhood games, development resources, and the many many prototypes I threw out before making RimWorld.
