White Stock, Immersion, and Stuff.
So I’m making white chicken stock for the first time. I guess it isn’t technically hard to do, but then again neither is boiling an egg, but most people can’t do that right either. So we’ll see how this turns out.
After being inspired at the Triangle Game Conference, I decided to open up some projects. First, I’m writing a simple little experiment that will hopefully prove some ideas I have on immersing players in a story. I’ve already done the technical work, so I just have to create content. Thankfully I made it a point to do this rather low tech, so it wont’ require much, but I have got an artist to help. Her name is Ciara Livingston and I think her artwork will only make this better. I’ve also convinced my wife to do a voice recording. Exciting stuff!
In the job world, I’ve started a project that involves actual software development. Web development specifically. I’m creating a web tool that will modify apache configurations live. I don’t think anyone has done this before, mostly because it isn’t something you want a lot of people to go around doing. Either way, it’s an exciting change of pace from my normal system administration work.
On Sunday my wife and I will have been married two years. Holy shit.
