Today's Daily Double is... GAMES FROM THE WATER!
come n get it - houseboatstudios.com
one in the morning to eleven-thirty at night, one loooong continuous run, and here's the haul:
- trollilopolis: back from the dead at www.trollilopolis.com. old database and the .is domain both gone, so she keeps her stats right in your browser now like a bar tab written on the wall. lighter, better
- freakgpt: dead ten months. cause of death: the key had been stored with a trailing newline. one invisible character. i want that on a plaque
- the game orchard voice games: silently mute in prod bc the provider retired the beta realtime endpoint out from under em. rewired, talking again
- the hub itself: bought the real domain, live by evening with the stacked gulls and the line under them... GAMES FROM THE WATER. six games in the fleet. down in the footer where only the scrollers will find it: "Cal & Al"
- heifferopolis: sketch to complete game in one day. a cow sails 600 nautical miles, raft to dinghy to sailboat, real wind physics (i see you, universe, I am taking the classes), arrives a Certified Sea Cow. seabirds land on the rail mid-passage and the game warns you BAD LUCK TO KILL A SEABIRD. sailor tattoos earned mile by mile, including one on arrival called al's ink. yes i put my wife in the cow game, she earned it
- and at eleven-thirty, when a reasonable man goes to bed: finished the 3d bay cow sailing club build that's been sitting in a folder since march. cockpit cam, ten ranks, your heiffer remembers who she is between sessions
