We set up a spare security camera and have been monitoring the nest. There have been a few run-ins with crows around tussling with the parents who had taken to sitting overnight with the chick again. We also found a broken egg on the ground yesterday. This morning, Sky (born behind a satellite dish) was hopping from the nest itself to the beam supporting the dish. Shortly after, a crow flies past pursued by the adult doves and Sky panics and flies the nest! 1/n

As inevitable as a software update when you need that piece of software immediately, I found a bug after yesterday&#39;s change. Fortunately it only cost a couple of minutes and tokens to fix.

Test levels are always a bit daft, but you get the idea; there will be more polish in future (and more challenge). The next thing is to make these actions update the player save and persist at which point it&#39;s almost a game 😮. And becomes more of a pain to debug too, of course. Soon it will be 90% done and I will be on to the second 90% aka &quot;getting it done&quot;. #love2d #indiedev

Killing a prisoner you&#39;re trying to rescue used to stick until you reentered the asteroid, but now they are beamed back to their prison. I think the old way was too punishing tho more &quot;realistic&quot; and maybe &quot;No escape; even in death!&quot; fits the scifi dystopian feel quite well anyway. Maybe? I never thought I&#39;d find the tokens to do anything about it before and it&#39;s only now I&#39;m making the big (Love2D) Oust I considered making i...
