No Work Done Yet - Adventures in Depressionland

Just a short update since I haven't done one in a while.

  I've been bed-ridden for the last week or so.  Even then I wasn't doing much work.  I have serious concentration issues whenever I'm not procrastinating.  Maybe I need some prescription pharmaceuticals.  It's been suggested that I might be suffering from Catatonia.  Based on the Wiki I'd say it's a pretty good chance, I don't really know.

Current Projects

  Technically none, since I haven't been working.  That aside, I'm having a lot of difficulty even thinking about proper game design.  I need to go to school or something just to get some focus.  But I'm quite poor.  Well, not dirt poor (nothing against dirt).  I only make about $6k a year...  I'm tempted to post my PayPal and pray for donations.  Anyways.  Cytomight is on the backburner, but I've ripped a lot of its code for use in my new game "RPS".  Also, I've been trying to re-create CastleQuest on the NES verbatim in Gamemaker just so I can get back into the programming environment, but that's not going well either... same problems, Procrastination.


Other Projects

  Same boat.  I have yet another new idea for a game... and it hurts me.  I hate being so inspired with no way to express it.  

Anyways. 

  There are a lot of mining adventure games; Minecraft, Dwarf Fortress, Miner Dig Deep, Spelunky...  they're all pretty good (although, I don't really care for Minecraft).  I've noticed that there really isn't a hardcore action game about a Miner.  Most mining games are either adventure sandboxes or economy games...  I'm going to throw all that out.  Big bosses, crazy explosions and lots of death.

Gaming

  Played Touhou for a while and Castle of the Winds.  I tried to play Nier, since my bro likes it... but I gave up since fishing is dumb.  My bro bought me Minecraft, but it's not my cup of tea... I need fixed goals.  In Dwarf Fortress I'm quite happy simply trying to survive and kill Megabeats while maintaining a stable economy...  in Minecraft I can dig into a wall and AFK indefinitely, or take a couple hundred arrows into the Nether and take over hell...  even on Hard it's not Hard enough for me.  I also got the new Pokemon game, but I haven't played it in the last week or so...

  I've been thinking of doing an LP of Illusion of Gaia, but IDK...  my heart isn't in anything right now.
