You raise a really good point about thinking through the game mechanics before diving into the coding.
As it happens, I have actually spent a lot of time on this and even implemented something similar some years ago.
I probably could made that clearer in the blogpost, but I mainly wanted to give a concise overview my goals and plans for this project.
My next updates should have a bit more substance :)
- AndrewOMartin 11y agoI will enthusiastically read and consider any progress you post. Even if I think there's a low probability that the project will be completed as you describe, don't be discouraged. Any progress made in any direction will be valuable experience, and enjoyable. I have started more than one project that I couldn't finish and I've never regretted any of them in hindsight. Don't be afraid to fail publicly, by which I mean post about absolutely everything you've done, no matter how unfinished it is, it'll help everyone keep enthusiastic and engaged. If you complete the project, you'll have a valuable log, if not you'll be able to see both 1) what went wrong and 2) the sub-victories you had on the way. Good luck.
