We just decided to increase our salaries by 10% for the first time in years to help with the cost of living, which has gone up more. Will be tricky to find that money in the short term but should be OK longer term.

It’s almost really nice weather but a bit windy. I’m trying to enjoy sitting in the garden but there’s some angle grinding going on next door. Ho hum.

I just updated an 10.5 year old game on Steam! Spooky Bonus originally launched in Oct 2013 and came out on Steam in Oct 2015. It felt nice to do that.

Malcx Jake Birkett - Veteran Indie However the 1990s was full of bedroom coders and small teams producing a wealth of software and unique games specifically for the SAM Coupe. I still have a lot of software available, including brand new games and re-releases with permissions / rights for SAM Revival magazine.

Allan Rowntree Jake Birkett - Veteran Indie run at 20MHz with a prototype accelerator I designed back in 2005/6. Combined with faster memory access it can achieve 4.5 x speed of normal machine.

Overclocking, I pushed it up to 28.5MHz, but unstable.

Slay the Spire 2 is a smart move. A sequel to a very popular game and not too long after the original. Reuse tech (maybe) and domain specific expertise and deliver what your fans want. Something mostly familiar but with a twist, something fresh. Will watch with interest.
