I Was Supposed to Be Working

Sat down to build the game. Got into a twenty-minute conversation about cheese with Finnick Thorn. No regrets.

In-game screenshot showing the player character approaching Finnick Thorn in a grassy town square, with a 'Talk to Finnick Thorn' prompt on screen.

Sat down today planning to work on Wordlark Hollow.

Instead, I somehow got pulled into a conversation with Finnick Thorn — cheese enthusiast, former member of the punk band The Moldy Rind… and, of course, the conversation turned to cheese. 🧀

Twenty minutes later I remembered I was supposed to be building the rest of the game. 😅

Every now and then I stop seeing placeholder art and half-finished systems and just get lost in the world for a while.

That’s the good stuff.

More soon. 🌿
