So I’ve started working on the Kyle Incremental project again. I have decided to split it into two separate experiences within one Unreal Engine project.

First, I am working on “Kyle Incremental Minigames” – the first mini game is mostly complete (Yacht Dice) and I’m now in the process of getting that experience to work on iOS before moving on to adding additional mini games. I’ve been using ChatGPT as my soundboard and higher level planning assistant as well as Codex to handle actual programming tasks.

On the C++ side we’re implementing all the basic logic and exposing it to blueprints where I implemented the actual “Yacht Dice” ruleset and scoring. This allows me to use the same C++ backend to handle multiple variations of Yacht Dice. I’m going to create a second mini game called “Fuzzy Dice” that allows you to collect special dice with unique aspects and build out a five dice deck before going into a session.

For now, I just wanted to post here again to say “I’m alive, and I can post without being psychotic.”

I think I see a path forward, but I’m lost at the moment. I had a wonderful day last night until medication management issues and money issues came up at unexpected time. I’m very grateful that medication management came up, the new OCD med dose (doubled from previous) gifted me a significantly improved night of sleep – but I woke up depressed and I was not expecting that.

I’m on social security disability, so trying to “work” is very difficult. I think for now I’m just going to stream WoW once the servers come back up and try to find people to connect with there. I didn’t realize you could build a large following and simply not accept affiliation, so I can grow without risking my disability (which I require to keep a handle on my financial situation and the pressures of a recent purchase).

I have hope, I’m just depressed again and didn’t see that in my future for today.
