Ok, internet’s fixed. Now to catch up on everything I missed.

Found a bull ant in my room, then another, right before bed. Got out the surface bugspray ‘just to cut off their path’. Entire flat now smells like bugspray. Opened doors and windows to get airflow, not sure how long I’ll have to wait it out. It’s now 4.20am. You win, ants. You owned me.

No internet connection at home for a few days, and while I get phone signal here it’s pretty weak and unreliable in the wake of the fires. It’s turned even uploading screenshots (let alone clips) into a whole process. Hoping the NBN guys will be able to fix it right away when they come tomorrow.

That’s Episode 1 done, and that’ll do it for tonight. The storytelling’s tight so far, there’s just enough interactivity to put the player ‘in’ the scene, and the shift gameplay intrigues me. I can already see how this is “Twilight for dudes”, but as a dude I fuck with that! #DispatchGame

Oh man, even in the tutorial you have to be conservative with who you send out and for what. I assumed it’d be a cakewalk, tried sending a bunch of heroes out together, and took a cascade of losses when they weren’t back in time for a wave of calls.

This is a cool system. Strategic, chaotic, and story-driven all at once. I’ve never seen any game integrate all that — they usually pick two. #DispatchGame
