7 Days of Nothing, #1

Wind is weird. I spent the time today looking out my window and some leaves would be swaying about and some next to them perfectly still. I saw 20 leaves fall. I don’t know why I counted them.
I thought about leaves and the wind and the weather. At the start of the 20 minutes, it was overcast and dim, but now it’s almost dark, despite being early afternoon.

Some thoughts from this session:

  • 20 minutes was not enough. I felt like I was just getting started when my timer went off. I reset it for another 10 minutes and that felt like a good amount of time. Maybe tomorrow I’ll do 30 minutes
  • What would a game about being a leaf look like? Maybe there’s a few trees and the camera is placed randomly on one of the leaves.
  • It’s very restful, but also a little tense. I thought a lot about what I would write here. It’s like when you know you’re being graded, which is ironic because I’m the one grading.
  • Could I use Aseprite to make drawings like in Paint, but animated?

That’s it for today, I’m looking forward to doing this again tomorrow!
PS – Now it’s raining.
