Congrats on the new employment NON, just keep at things however you do and strive to stay healthy and enjoy things---I get the feeling that one way or another Infra Arcana still has a bright time of it ahead, just perhaps not on such a breakneck pace.   :)

Congratulations on the new job.

Sorry to hear the game has become like a job for you. I have been through similar things with music and board game designs. It sucks when you get that feeling.

Hope you get to come back to it someday. But either way, it's a great game as is. Although I was hoping for a nail gun for my birthday :(  And/or spiked mace.

Good luck on the new job man. Hope it brings great things for you.

It was a good show.
Happy is the tomb where no wizard hath lain and happy the town at night whose wizards are all ashes.

One of the things I like about the podcast is it helps focus a bit of attention on some worthy roguelikes.

You mean interest by others to play it? Or interest by you continue development?

Either way, definitely good to hear.
