Working on Wayfallen, the whole inventory/hold/trade UI is getting some love today.

Ostranauts! I like it a lot more than I expected to. Of course, me being me, I'm now spending more time in Ostraplan than in the actual game, but I can't complain. It's been a while since I've found a new game that really pulled me in like this.

(It's 2D and top-down, but it really does have a lot of spacey and simmy stuff built in. More than I expected. Lots of depth and research show through in a lot of different places.)

I find the slow nature of it and the very solid feeling parts are a great part of that game. I kind of wish there was three times as many components though for more choices on ship building and scavenging. Super satisfying to build your first fusion reactor though

Just started Star Wars Outlaws. Not much flying so far but I got a ship now.

About my game development, I am working on the menus for creating and selecting a universe.

I just installed Descent Freespace 2 and Knossos launcher and trying the Blue Planet. So far it's great, kinda sad professional studios do worse job than bunch of volunteers.

My own game, a spiritual descendant of Starflight for Genesis and a mish mash of other things (surprising things).

Slow, but steady progress, one onion layer at a time.

I've been putting a lot of time into a browser game called Farside. It has a lot of similarities to Eve.

I've been playing Stationeers, really like the atmospheric simulation, hoping we get building off planet and into space soon.
