The Gremlins In My Mind Want To Own A Lil Mini Computer Like This As If I We're Some Strange Sci-fi Novel

It increasingly feels like securing a publisher as an indie game dev isn't as much of a "solution" as it used to be. Seems like I'm constantly hearing about devs fighting with publishers or really poor performance on launch. Am I crazy? Is this just some kind of insane bias I've stumbled into because of who I know / the games I pay attention to? Anyone have any like... good stories to share about their publisher?

i'm playing wytchwood and it's fine and all but i'm getting pretty frustrated with having to go around and gather ingredients and everything so now i'm just looking at a walkthrough to see what are the necessary items i need for the rest of the game and am starting to make a spreadsheet to see if i can just calculate the numbers of things to get and prepare ahead of time so i don't. have to. keep going to the swamp to get things like oh god please

to all my researchers, students and people in general who love learning: if you don't know this already, i'm about to give you a game changer

connectedpapers

the basic rundown is: you use the search bar to enter a topic, scientific paper name or DOI. the website then offers you a list of papers on the topic, and you choose the one you're looking for/most relevant one. from here, it makes a tree diagram of related papers that are clustered based on topic relatability and colour-coded by time they were produced!

for example: here i search "human B12"

i go ahead and choose the first paper, meaning my graph will be based around it and start from the topics of "b12 levels" and "fraility syndrome"

here is the graph output! you can scroll through all the papers included on the left, and clicking on each one shows you it's position on the chart + will pull up details on the paper on the right hand column (title, authors, citations, abstract/summary and links where the paper can be found)

you get a few free graphs a month before you have to sign up, and i think the free version gives you up to 5 a month. there are paid versions but it really depends how often you need to use this kinda thing.

The games i play be like:

the one common thread is autism and mental illness

1 year patch difference!!! One on the left has a good amount of wear from being on my vest too >:))
