- 🎣 I am still fully consumed with building my cosy fishing game, Tiddler.
|
|
- 🗺️ This week I spent most of my free time fleshing out the small maps for the game to make them more interesting.
|
|
- 📦 I also researched a fair bit about the wild fish I didn't know much about. I'm not going for realism but enough to make it believable...
|
|
- 📕 The Fishing Log/Encyclopedia has had a full overhaul, it now gives counts of fish that you have collected per zone and pretty bars.
|
|
- 😆 I signed up over on [omg.lol](https://home.omg.lol/referred-by/ritual) and have been poking around seeing what I can do with it. status.lol is going to get incorporated somewhere on my site and I'll probably write a tiny app for posting updates from my phone quickly.
|
|
- 🛜 My ISP has messed up my static IP and put me being CGNAT so I had to do some firefighting for some of my locally hosted projects. Hopefully they can sort it out next week.
|
|
- I decided to ditch GitHub because... Well... Microslop. I now host my own [Forgejo server](https://git.bkr.im/) and it backs up automatically every day to a Hetzner Storage Box. Nice.
|
|
- 💭 I've got an idea brewing for a project that checks websites for IndieWeb friendly markup and content. It's very early stages of brewing.
|
|
- 😣 Must stay focused on finishing one project before starting another...!

I am going to push on with Tiddler, there's still _so_ much to do... but every session feels like loads of progress still.
