So I'm sure a lot of you have noticed I've been as quiet as a mouse in church. I want to to give a clear and honest update. With AI coming in, and just the general vibe of software development the past few years, I've decided to step back pretty hard from game dev and go into a medical field instead. Seeing AI stuff everywhere has just sapped what little love I had left for the industry. Everywhere I look I see this slop, I just don't want to see it anymore. So, I love big complex machines, and our city has a constant need for people to work on/run MRI machines, so I've gone back to school to get my licenses for that. It's been a lot of hard work, I still have a long ways to go to finish it (I'm a little over halfway done), but it's obviously made me drop off the net more than I expected.

I AM STILL WORKING ON ALICE IS DEAD. -WE- ARE STILL WORKING ON ALICE IS DEAD

I'm planning on it being my final hurrah in the gaming industry. And I will finish it no matter what, I have a contract with 2LeftThumbs, we're doing this and we're not going to cheap-out on it, we're going to do it right.

That said, at the end of the day school has just been leaving me beat, med school is hard and I'm not a young man anymore. This is a tumultuous time for a lot of people. Things have FOR SURE slowed down progress. Everyone on the team has stuff going on, so overall we've just not been moving as fast as we'd like. But we will finish the game, I promise. We are all committed to finishing the game!

I will always be available on the discord for Lorestrome and will post smaller updates there.
