GYSO Game Dev Part 8 - Sleep Get Your Skills On: Game Dev

Hi and welcome to the GYSO Game Dev podcast! Where I, the anonymous editor, continually forgets that I have to make shownotes! So here's to not doing double the amount of work for some lame text that accompanies a podcast no one cares to quality-control the correctness of it's shownotes.



42:30 Tim wants to do things

43:30 Editors note: I have been trying to mark the transitions while recording, but it's still a work in progress

44:22 So I don't know what section we're in now, because I jumped to a marker, but it seems to be *very* far away from a section marker

46:00 We might be in the What Went Wrong section, but maybe we're still in What Went Right

46:45 It's Thor editing, by the way

47:00 This entire episode is, practically, about Tim's new sleep schedule

47:50 But includes some more abstract thoughts on doing the things you want to do in a stress-free manner

48:30 Again, focused on how freeing it is for us to work in solitude, before the rest of the world wakes up

49:00 Editor here, I've developed the editing template for the podcast a little, and I think the podcast sounds a little better and fuller. Slightly overcompressed still, but better.

50:10 Send me some feedback on what you think about it

50:30 I don't really feel bad about some of the amateur cracks and pops, one of the things that defines GYSO is the unmitigated raw nature of it.

52:10 Here, actually, some interesting conversation happened on the merit of copying other people's strategies bit-by-bit, just because and I think you should listen to this bit specifically if you only listen to one thing in this part - or is it episode?

53:00 What Happens Next?

55:30 I feel inspired to create instruments. Not in the podcast, but right now.

56:00 This slow burn of me creating my Linux musician setup is already at it's end

57:0 I have all the tools I need, and I feel like creating soundscapes

58:00 My week has been pretty good to me, if very much over-social for my personal need

59:00 But Tim is talking about being content right around here

1:00:00 And I relate a lot right now. I've been doing *better*

1:01:00 But now I want more. 

1:01:30 Tim is saying some pretty nice things right here. Actually, throughout most of this podcast. I expect this level of clarity from him will continue for a few more podcast episodes before some weird vagely-related setback

1:06:45 Reading back, I really do wonder who knows me better: Me, or Tim. Because what I just wrote about doing better and wanting more is triggering the Tim-coined term of "immediately escalating my interests"

1:08:40 A couple months back, I had a deep realization that I talk about my deepest self-motivations too lightly. 

1:10:40 You see, I'm an intensely self-aware person, and so it's pretty easy for me to talk about the stuff I *really* care about and the things I *really* want to do

1:12:00 But then, having said those things out loud, they stop being fun things that develop me, my personality, and my self-worth in the background, and start being something I have to be accountable for

1:14:20 In that way, this podcast is really dangerous for me in that way

1:26:00 Those were Thor's final comments. Editor's note: I skipped. If you want to know what we talked about, you can listen to the podcast.
