Lets Play Update - April 2026

Sun, 26 Apr 2026 00:00:00 +0000

We’re back with another monthly update and some fantastic news! We are finally back to releasing videos on YouTube! While the situation with YouTube hasn’t fully resolved in a way I would like, it is moving in a positive direction.

From now on, the plan is

Continue recording at a slowed pace (up to ~20 videos per month instead of the previous ~40+ per month)
As 1-week video batches get done, continue releasing them as Early Access via torrent on Patreon
As larger batches of videos get done (e.g. major plot beats are reached), release them publicly on YouTube

The goal is to maintain a healthier pace for myself so I have time to work on things other than video creation.

Razors and Blades Got Worse

Sun, 19 Apr 2026 00:00:00 +0000

A common sales model nowadays is the “Razors and Blades model”. The basic premise is you divide a product into two parts. These two parts depend on each other, frequently having one reusable part and the other needing replacement. The reusable part is sold for cheap, the replacable part constitutes the primary revenue stream. The prototypical example is right in the name - razors and blades. Sell a razor handle for cheap, sell the razor blades themselves often at a markup.

Time Management

Sun, 12 Apr 2026 00:00:00 +0000

One of those “wonderful” struggles with ADHD is time blindness and general time management issues.

Talk to most people with ADHD and they’ll tell you they experience time blindness. In other words, they don’t have a properly functioning internal clock. Keeping track of how much time has passed is a nightmare at best without the aid of clocks, alarms, timers, etc.

Add on top of that the ADHD tendency to hyperfocus and you can easily imagine how impossible proper time management is. A good many people with ADHD will get into a habit of… “I have plans for later today! I can’t possibly do anything before those plans even though the plans are 5 hours away!” There is considerable crossover with autistic people in this trait. I would not be surprised at all if this is a response to time blindness and time management issues. I believe Alice Averlong recently posted similar on her tumblr? Can’t find it though. Buried in the timeline.

Dysphoria and Euphoria

Sun, 05 Apr 2026 00:00:00 +0000

I was roughly reminded recently why I don’t go clothes shopping by the fact that I was forced to go clothes shopping. Old clothes were wearing out!

So it appears that I have for quite some time been subconsciously avoiding putting any thought into my appearance, which includes what I wear from day to day. This is an experience that probably a good number of trans people go through. Thinking about your appearance, if it doesn’t match with your preferred gender presentation, can be quite… dysphoria inducing. Ignoring the problem makes it go away right?

Leaning Into Weakness

Mon, 23 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Slightly misleading title ahoy!

As part of my game development, I am finding myself needing to learn a good many new skills. In particular, creating pixel art has been an interesting challenge. It is definitely a skill I could be good at with a lot of practice, but I am simply not there yet.

Right now, my pixel art is… definitely amateurish. I have little confidence in my ability to color or especially to shade. This is not aided by my colorblindness. But I want my game to look good (and I cannot afford to pay a pixel artist a wage they deserve while I myself am making retail wages). So… what to do?

Godot Nodes as Logic

Wed, 11 Mar 2026 08:11:00 -0600

I recently realized an interesting way to use Godot’s nodes as a sort of “visual scripting”. I would not be surprised if this is already common knowledge among Godot users but that doesn’t mean it’s not worth discussing. It arose fairly naturally from trying to solve a problem, so I figured I’d detail what happened here.

While working on the first area for Chasing Elysium, I was finding myself wanting a way to be able to trigger specific cutscenes or check for specific story flags to control what nodes actually appear in a scene. Writing a bespoke script every time would be… tedious at best. Inefficient. And a blatant violation of the DRY principle.

Chasing Elysium - February 2026 Devlog

Sat, 28 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Month 2 of this dev cycle, which means working on actual new content! And as it turns out a few other features that I need in order to fully implement that content.

Features

Dialogue Auto-Advance

Dialogue boxes can now auto-advance! This is a flag set on individual dialogue boxes, though I may eventually add the option to enable this for all dialogue in the settings.

Walk ’n’ Talks

The above enabled walk ’n’ talks! And attached to walk ’n’ talks, I also added the ability to forcibly slow the player down. While I don’t want to use this too much (really only if it makes sense narratively), it is a way to give more time for walk ’n’ talks to play out. The other aspect of giving them time to play out is to just… design the areas well so there’s less chance of them getting interrupted.

Chasing Elysium - January 2026 Devlog

Mon, 02 Feb 2026 15:11:00 -0600

My development cycle is shifting a little bit! Now that I have a couple of prototypes under my belt and feedback from friends, I’m shifting into a 3 month cycle for new builds.

Month 1 is new features, functionality, and refactoring. Month 2 is new content. Month 3 is assets such as graphics and eventually audio (I’m trying to learn piano and music composition! it’s hard but i want to do it!). Month 3 will also include polish, any last minute bug fixes, and play testing to prepare for an alpha build to distribute to friends.

Chasing Elysium - Devlog #012

Fri, 05 Dec 2025 16:47:00 -0600

I released the v0.0.1 prototype to friends last month! Got some feedback which was greatly appreciated, both praise for things going well and information on things I need to improve. A new v0.0.2 prototype just went out to friends with this month’s updates. I hope to put out a prototype every 3 months or so from here on.

Now then, let’s go over the things I’ve done this month!

Refactoring

Oh hey more of this refactoring business. When I was wrapping up the prototype last month, I learned a few things about Godot and ran into some pain points with my code, particularly with putting cutscenes together. The first three days of the month were therefore dedicated to a bit of refactoring and reorganization.

Chasing Elysium - Devlog #011

Sun, 30 Nov 2025 15:24:00 -0600

Hey all, it’s time for the November 2025 devlog!

Writing

I finally got around to getting some of the writing for the game down in an actual tangible format. I have the prologue and chapters 1, 2, 9, and 10 outlined in some detail. Skeletons exist for chapters 3, 4, 5, and 6. I also have a particular aspect of the story that will be present in chapters 2 - 10 outlined in some detail as well. Chapters 1 - 10 will comprise “Act 1”.

Chasing Elysium - Devlog #010

Fri, 31 Oct 2025 16:23:00 -0600

Hey all! It’s the end of the month so I figured I’d try writing up a little recap of everything I did for my game, Chasing Elysium, over the course of the month. I imagine this will be a good way to really get a feel for just how much progress I am actually making.

Honestly, there is a chance I might just switch the devlogs to being monthly instead of weekly. Weekly is a lot! Monthly feels like I’d actually have something substantial to say!

Chasing Elysium - Devlog #009

Sun, 26 Oct 2025 19:20:00 -0600

Taking a break from the game itself to work on the dialogue editor! This week I rewrote the code for loading the cutscene/dialogue files, and I expanded it to include saving files. The new setup is much more maintainable and extensible I believe, and I should be able to just drop it in any project that might use the format. I will need to rewrite the handling in the game itself to bridge the file handling with the actual dialogue engine in-game, but that shouldn’t be too difficult.

Chasing Elysium - Devlog #008

Mon, 20 Oct 2025 16:26:00 -0600

Busy week!

More combat work! I finished reworking attacks to be AnimationPlayer based, which will provide all the flexibility we need in designing them. I’ll need to extend the attack API over time to allow for more types of attacks, but that can come as needed. Currently the only supported type of attack is a direct attack with infinite range.

Additionally, I implemented attack cooldowns! It is now impossible to use a second attack while a previous one is playing out, and there will be some time before you can use an attack again after using it the first time. You’ll need to plan your attacks, no spamming them!

Chasing Elysium - Devlog #007

Mon, 13 Oct 2025 19:55:00 -0600

Managed to get combat fully working this week!

I then promptly broke it on purpose. Going to be doing a lot of refactoring in order to make combat extensible and… interesting, we’ll say.

I’m hoping to have the refactor done by the end of this week. When it’s done, the system should allow me to make complex, animated, and nuanced attacks for both the player and for enemies. I’ll also be able to extend to more types of attacks as development continues.

Chasing Elysium - Devlog #006

Sun, 05 Oct 2025 20:14:00 -0600

This week I continued working on the combat UI. It now displays when you enter combat and hides when you exit combat, as it should. I also implemented the code for it to be adjusted by the player. So now it’s starting to look and function properly! I also got the combat controls themselves implemented. At some point I will add control remapping, but that’ll come later.

Next week, possibly even tomorrow, I will hopefully have a working combat encounter. The enemies won’t attack or anything, they’ll just stand there and take the hits until they die. But! If it works, then I can start to build on it!

Chasing Elysium - Devlog #005

Sun, 28 Sep 2025 17:11:00 -0600

This was a slow week for a few different reasons. Don’t worry about it. The big thing is I’ve been setting the website up. I did however make some progress!

Namely I started working on the combat UI and I tested the targeting code. Targeting code worked nearly perfectly, just needed one fix. May need polish later but that’s for later, the important thing for now is it’s functional.

There is one thing I really want to get working on the website that won’t affect y’all but will affect me. I’m gonna try a few more days to get it working. If I fail by… Wednesday or so, I’ll go back to working on the game.

Chasing Elysium - Devlog #004

Sun, 21 Sep 2025 18:25:00 -0600

I made more progress than expected this week, despite recovering from my bike crash! Unfortunately none of it is in a state where it can be tested yet.

Combat - Movement

I implemented the movement code for the player while they’re in combat! The player has three movement speeds while in combat. They move fastest when moving towards the targeted enemy, slower when strafing the enemy, and slowest when moving away from the enemy.

Chasing Elysium - Devlog #003

Wed, 10 Sep 2025 16:25:00 -0600

This is a day late cause I crashed my bike a couple days ago! I’m resting and healing, but this coming week I probably won’t get much done.

Intro Cutscene

I got the rough (and I mean rough) draft of the first part of the opening cutscene done. I’m happy with it! It looks pretty bad, but the important thing is it exists. I can improve upon it as development continues. What immediately follows this segment is the combat tutorial, which means…

Chasing Elysium - Devlog #002

Sun, 07 Sep 2025 16:33:00 -0600

Second week of Trying Very Hard To Actually Commit To Making This Game. So what did I do this week?

Planning

I know roughly how I want the combat system to work and made some notes - stats, calculations, rough implementation outline, etc. I’ll start implementing it fairly soon, after I finish the current Big Task.

Setting Up Private Git

I haven’t actually been putting my work into a git repository, which is not very smart of me. I got a private git repo set up and made a bunch of individual commits corresponding to individual features I’ve added. This should also allow me to do work on my laptop when I’m out of the house.

Chasing Elysium - Devlog #001

Sun, 31 Aug 2025 02:28:00 -0600

Welcome to a devlog! I’m going to attempt to doing a weekly log on what I’ve been working on for my game, Chasing Elysium. Progress will unfortunately be on the slower side, as I also have a full time job doing physical labor and I have my Let’s Plays and my raid group. I am very busy! But I want to get this game made.

So! What did I do this week?

A Step Away - Reflection on Loss and Regret

Mon, 25 Nov 2024 18:46:00 -0600

The following is an analysis of a song from Xenoblade 3 that I originally wrote for cohost. It was originally published on December 14th, 2022.

Major spoilers for Xenoblade 3, particularly Chapter 5 and Chapter 6 with a little of Chapter 7 near the end. Content warnings for mentions and discussions of in-game suicide attempts, deaths, and grief.

A Step Away is the first of two vocal tracks which play in Xenoblade 3. Vocal tracks in these games are reserved for critically important scenes and often are sung from the perspective of one or more characters about the situation they find themselves in. In a sense, they can be considered “musical numbers” like what one would see in a musical on Broadway, although the music is not sung directly by the characters themselves so it doesn’t quite qualify.

Thinking About the To The Moon Beach Episode

Mon, 18 Nov 2024 15:35:00 -0600

So back in late September, the Sigmund Corp franchise got its Beach Episode (available on Steam as “Just a To The Moon Series Beach Episode”), and with it the series is nearly at a close. While I am going to avoid naming any specific spoilers in this blog post (please play these games yourself, they’re around 4 hours each and very worth it), I should probably provide some context!

While I refer to it as the Sigmund Corp series, officially this series of games by Freebird Games is referred to as the To The Moon series, named for the very first game - a 2011 release titled To The Moon. In this series, you play as a pair of doctors (Neil Watts and Eva Rosalene) whose job is effectively a sci-fi Make-a-Wish for the elderly. Using a special machine, they are able to analyze the memories of those on their death beds and then rewrite those memories so that in their final moments the patients remember their life as if they had accomplished whatever life goals they missed out on.

In Stars and Time - Mental Illness, It Can Happen to You!

Tue, 24 Sep 2024 09:25:00 -0600

The following is a repost of an essay I wrote in special interest induced delirium one night while hanging at the RP bar run by one of my girlfriends in FFXIV. It was originally posted to cohost, but with the website shutting down, I wanted to be sure it was preserved.

Anyone who’s been following me for a bit may have noticed that around the end of December 2023/start of January 2024, I became absolutely obsessed with an indie game called In Stars and Time. I wanted to spend a little time talking about why.

Lets Play Update - April 2026

Sun, 26 Apr 2026 00:00:00 +0000

From now on, the plan is

Continue recording at a slowed pace (up to ~20 videos per month instead of the previous ~40+ per month)
As 1-week video batches get done, continue releasing them as Early Access via torrent on Patreon
As larger batches of videos get done (e.g. major plot beats are reached), release them publicly on YouTube

The goal is to maintain a healthier pace for myself so I have time to work on things other than video creation.

Chasing Elysium - February 2026 Devlog

Sat, 28 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Month 2 of this dev cycle, which means working on actual new content! And as it turns out a few other features that I need in order to fully implement that content.

Features

Dialogue Auto-Advance

Dialogue boxes can now auto-advance! This is a flag set on individual dialogue boxes, though I may eventually add the option to enable this for all dialogue in the settings.

Walk ’n’ Talks

Mon, 02 Feb 2026 15:11:00 -0600

Hey all, it’s time for the November 2025 devlog!

Writing

Chasing Elysium - Devlog #010

Fri, 31 Oct 2025 16:23:00 -0600

Honestly, there is a chance I might just switch the devlogs to being monthly instead of weekly. Weekly is a lot! Monthly feels like I’d actually have something substantial to say!

Chasing Elysium - Devlog #007

Mon, 13 Oct 2025 19:55:00 -0600

Managed to get combat fully working this week!

I then promptly broke it on purpose. Going to be doing a lot of refactoring in order to make combat extensible and… interesting, we’ll say.

Sun, 28 Sep 2025 17:11:00 -0600

This was a slow week for a few different reasons. Don’t worry about it. The big thing is I’ve been setting the website up. I did however make some progress!

Chasing Elysium - Devlog #004

Sun, 21 Sep 2025 18:25:00 -0600

I made more progress than expected this week, despite recovering from my bike crash! Unfortunately none of it is in a state where it can be tested yet.

Combat - Movement

Wed, 10 Sep 2025 16:25:00 -0600

This is a day late cause I crashed my bike a couple days ago! I’m resting and healing, but this coming week I probably won’t get much done.

From now on, the plan is

Continue recording at a slowed pace (up to ~20 videos per month instead of the previous ~40+ per month)
As 1-week video batches get done, continue releasing them as Early Access via torrent on Patreon
As larger batches of videos get done (e.g. major plot beats are reached), release them publicly on YouTube

The goal is to maintain a healthier pace for myself so I have time to work on things other than video creation.

My development cycle is shifting a little bit! Now that I have a couple of prototypes under my belt and feedback from friends, I’m shifting into a 3 month cycle for new builds.

Honestly, there is a chance I might just switch the devlogs to being monthly instead of weekly. Weekly is a lot! Monthly feels like I’d actually have something substantial to say!

From now on, the plan is

Continue recording at a slowed pace (up to ~20 videos per month instead of the previous ~40+ per month)
As 1-week video batches get done, continue releasing them as Early Access via torrent on Patreon
As larger batches of videos get done (e.g. major plot beats are reached), release them publicly on YouTube

The goal is to maintain a healthier pace for myself so I have time to work on things other than video creation.

Month 2 of this dev cycle, which means working on actual new content! And as it turns out a few other features that I need in order to fully implement that content.

Features

Dialogue Auto-Advance

Dialogue boxes can now auto-advance! This is a flag set on individual dialogue boxes, though I may eventually add the option to enable this for all dialogue in the settings.

Sat, 28 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Month 2 of this dev cycle, which means working on actual new content! And as it turns out a few other features that I need in order to fully implement that content.

Features

Dialogue Auto-Advance

Dialogue boxes can now auto-advance! This is a flag set on individual dialogue boxes, though I may eventually add the option to enable this for all dialogue in the settings.

Lets Play Update - April 2026

Sun, 26 Apr 2026 00:00:00 +0000

From now on, the plan is

Continue recording at a slowed pace (up to ~20 videos per month instead of the previous ~40+ per month)
As 1-week video batches get done, continue releasing them as Early Access via torrent on Patreon
As larger batches of videos get done (e.g. major plot beats are reached), release them publicly on YouTube

The goal is to maintain a healthier pace for myself so I have time to work on things other than video creation.
