Indeed, and hopefully the third/fourth rewrite is even faster. Let's see what these tools can do!

And I'm sure it's great for already introverted people to go into the toxic expectation tank with the full knowledge that whatever it is they do, it'll never be good enough for some.

the full knowledge that whatever it is they do, it'll never be good enough for some.

Isn't that true for everyone at all times in every project regardless of field or industry?

I nearly wet myself, so true!

Almost to the month mark...

I'm *really* hoping the silence from Josh, Lindsey and Adam is an indication of something. Maybe crunching to get something worth showing (i.e. game play) ready?

If I had a dollar for every time one of us here thought that, I could quit my day job.

Divide that among several of us and we could all quit our day jobs.

Personally, I'm fine with waiting. What's a couple days or weeks when we've waited years?

Honestly, I'd really like the next update to have enough gameplay implemented for us to finally have a video to show people this "game" we've been talking about for years but have only ancient footage to show them while we wring our hands and say "it's been a complicated and troubled development, but it's really being developed, I swear!" If that takes a few more days or a few more weeks, so be it. I'll only start getting worried if April goes by without a single devlog.

If this were the case, you could use that dollar to pay for someone to actually make Limit Theory.

Yup, this was my thinking before this dev log. The long wait, there must be something.

So I think I'll temper my expectations. At this point "Hey guys, we upgraded Notepad++" is what I'm expecting

I don't think this is the case, but I wouldn't mind an upgraded Notepad++.

Don't joke, Notepad++ has had some really good updates recently and wonderful features added

I still find the tail function doesn't work reliably for tailing logs... but the author mentioned it's been updated recently so maybe it HAS been fixed and I just need to give it another go...

But Notepad++ aside, I will keep my expectations low for the next update. I think I was far to hyped from the trade show and thought there'd be "more". So if I don't expect much, it's hard to be disappointed. It also gives the upside of IF there's something substantial then I'm that much more excited. It's the right call!

Goodness, if we're talking about getting paid to worry about LT now...I can retire four years ago as the most lucrative developer in the history of the universe!!

In all seriousness, I hope the (self-disclaimingly-underwhelming) log lives up to at least ~25% or so of expectation.

We did seriously consider that for at least half a microsecond. Then I returned to vim

I'm looking forward to that as well. I'd say that, realistically, we're probably about 1 to 1.5 months away from being able to show 'representative' video gameplay footage again. We will get back to that point, but of course, I will never again be spending 2 days out of the month making videos

VIM is what I use when I can't be bothered setting up the SSH tunnels for Atom.
