 "hello, I'd like to make games using your tools and art assets. I will sell
 anything I make to you and only you, and if you don't want it that's fine too,
 I'll just play it with my friends sometimes."

 if you want to make rope, you start with small pieces and braid them together.
 
 if you want to make hope, you start with families and braid them together.
 
 just be careful, for the world is too vast to keep track of who knows what.
 better in my mind to have systems of familiar forces which keep guiding as
 things align.

 whoa, cool! So with one of these you can flash any ROM you want onto the
 cartridge and it should play any GBA/GBC game you uhhh legally own and have
 pulled the ROM from? If so that's pretty neat

 had a dream that we gamified all work and then put them into one single
 mega-game so whenever you wanted you could work on an arbitrary project and it
 would spin up a new game and take your inputs and use them to accomplish
 whatever was happening

 if you want to understand me, play Majesty the Fantasy Kingdom Sim (when you
 have time and are bored (very important combination)) - start on beginner
 difficulty and click the right buttons.

 @user-110 Exactly! I play games to practice strategy and empathy, not to stand
 triumphant over a virtual foe. Why should I care for the lessons of others
 when mine so often go unlearnt?
