Weekend Plans

I’ve got so many plans this weekend, I should probably take next week off!  hehe.  I’m going to try and take advantage of CoX’s double-XP weekend and  at least get a couple of levels there.  Although my buddy there has started yet another ‘toon, so maybe we’ll just be levelling up newbs.  I’d also like to get some serious updates to my game design document started with an eye towards answering the questions posed by the various Art of Game Design “Lenses.”  With that in mind, I’m hoping to at … Continue reading
