I defeated Tiny Ramparts so decisively that after continuing in endless mode, I had to choose to quit because the monsters couldn't even lay a single glove on my Keep. I also was running out of space to add new buildings! Quit after Night 37.

Let's all be honest with ourselves for a moment. The thing that 99% of computer users want is something that *looks* like Windows 7 or XP (or Mac equivalent) and that *never changes*. Nobody cares or wants to know what happens under the hood, they just want to Do Computer and they want to do it in a way that is comfortable and *doesn't fucking change all the time*

Any fulltime gamedevs or other creatives prone to side projects (so like all of them probably) have experience with working on whatever you feel compelled to work on on a given work day, so long as it is something that contributes to your body of work?

Boosts appreciated
