Hi everybody!

Now that Innkeep has funding and extra support, it feels like a great time to reboot my old dev diary series, now referred to as "devlogs". I'm starting out at #1, talking about my own story, and the 10 year journey it's been getting to this point. As well as the way in which classic RPGs like the Ultima series was a big inspiration, leading into a core design ethos of the game: being able to interact with tangible things.

This time I have a script, a proper microphone, and I can use a video editor. So it's a big jump in quality from the old days. Phoar!Hope you enjoy it! And please do consider liking and commenting on the video to help the algorithm so that the video can find more potential viewers. ːsteamthumbsupː

So long, and see you soon~!

Daniel
