I decided what I wanted to do pretty quickly, which I’m keeping kinda secretish for the nonce because the narrative whammy would be ruined otherwise.<\/p>\n

The plan I ended up settling on has left me setting up a simulation game… from scratch, since I had no base code. So it’s going to be text based, no graphics, using the Python console.<\/p>\n

But it will have music! \ud83d\ude00 I can sing, by golly, and Audacity makes it easy to record things. Perfect quality? No. A nice touch? Yes. Now I just need to figure out how to make the music loop using Pyglet.<\/p>\n

As far as how the game is coming along: quite nicely, all things considered. I just hit a stumbling block and am too tired to figure out where I went wrong, so it is time to sleep. But the simulation building progresses, and I have some of the commands implemented.<\/p>\n

This simulation isn’t real time, btw — you set it up, look at the results, and then make a decision about how to proceed. Run the simulation again? Make your final decision? Then more story.<\/p>\n

Edit:<\/strong>\u00a0Oh! And I know exactly how I will fit goats (maybe just one goat) into the game.<\/p>\n
