Backups and Updates

Another full day, starting with monthly backups. I also reordered the album images a bit, as many were not in the png format I now use. Then, prepared the listing for the sheet music for Letters From A Square Spoon, and published the sheet music for The Dusty Mirror on my itch channel. I also created the lyric booklet for Spoon.

I also updated my 3D engine code with a size option for objects, as used in Argus. I'd not used size in games before, but it might be useful in future. I've started to put together a new music pack for Flatspace.

Generally most of the day has been spent on admin of existing works. One difference between being young and old is that now I have a (large) back catalogue which needs constant attention. I must remember that the essence of art is to create new things; new. Well, the main music projects of Mirror and Spoon, started late last year, are nearly at an end, so I can start to look to the future.

Again my mind wonders towards games. I need plans for new games, which must be good, but not so expansive that they never get completed; so I must set limits. This month I will, at least, update Argus again with small changes, and Radioactive with small changes and a look to slightly bigger changes later in the year. Everything must be moving forwards, forwards, running, cutting though the vegetation of the future. Onwards to the El Dorado of the future.
