I started playing Endless Sky again. My main plan is to be as a shuttle, pay off the cost of the shuttle, save enough money to mine asteroids, buy a asteroid miner, then make a lot of money for a warship class spaceship. But I have been thinking about the original Escape Velocity and EV Nova. Those games are where I felt like I was a caption visiting other worlds, and I loved the variety of the locations and sounds once you land on a planet....
Hot days make running hard and after being inside all-day, attempting to be active in the afternoon feels like the dog days of summer. The heat feels slightly different these days. The UV also is a concern. The clouds are really nice though, and I still like to be outside. But it really was too hot to run.
Looking up at the mountain, I see a bunch of aspen trees and one dark green evergreen. It is just really dark green. I never really noticed it before from sitting here. It seems to be next to a service road, and zooming in on it with my phone, it appears to be very dark in that too. If I make the ski town/river game I should include a dark tree....
I recently heard that trees and wood is one of the most unique kinds of life in the universe. Its more rare than gold, diamonds and rare minerals. I like thinking that until we discover life, its really unique in the universe. I also think wood can survive in space. Basically until trees are discovered outside the earth, it will be an amazing materiel that we should look after.
I have been focusing on BootDev and learning Python. Rather than Godot and CRG. So I am not sure if that is good or bad… but I sometimes wish I had faster results getting my ideas into MVP development stage. So I just need carve out more time for both learning tracks.
