Good on you! I'm interested, what effects did it have on your life and what effects are you finding since quitting?

Bus driver used to let me get on with my card no issue. I didn't even know there was a restriction on times until a new driver told me I had to pay.
I said oh yeah it's a good job I can see just fine until 9am.

No wonder they're hiring, are they looking for his replacement?
Anyway I'm making a fishing adventure game, like if the old Zelda games had fishing instead of combat.
Follow me if you like, updates coming soon.

Where did you get a 3kg tub of mixed Haribo? That's an expensive pick and mix right there.

My dad used to use 'shreddies' in the 90s, he was from York. So I reckon it's definitely a northern thing?

Definitely, it was wonderful. Such an under appreciated game and I hope the new one lives up to the first - it hadn't really been on my radar as I was skeptical but now I'm interested.

Yes! Core memory unlocked. I don't know why but these became a major meme in amongst our friends group nearly 20 years ago now 😭

I always thought this about BotW. I love it, but there are clearly areas you're supposed to be much 'higher level' for but there's just no way to know until you get your arse kicked. I guess the visuals of the enemy are the signpost in the end. As for the shrines though that's definitely bad.

I've been trying that for 15 years 😂 Never quite managed it. I can't keep it simple haha. Just started something today though that I hope manages that.

That's generally how I've worked and pretty much the only thing that's kept me doing it at times. But I still want to succeed in publishing something!

Feeling this. I'm visually impaired and work full time in digital marketing. I don't think my colleagues understand the till that looking at a screen all day takes on me, and I'm run ragged with kids and looking after the house the rest of the time while my wife is on placement..

I don't remember this either as I got my copy given away with some magazine about 2000! It was one of the first steps to gamedev for me after modding GTA and Worms 2.

Yeah, my mum didn't even bother to take me to the dentist. She had dentures and there were times we didn't even have toothpaste in. Now it's me that faces the consequences.
