Note: The site has had major changes and may look incorrect unless you clear your cache. So I have a major update, and I'd like to write a brief changelog talking about what's changed. Big Stuff! Reblogs added! A post can now be a "reblog" of another post. Reblogs get all the same metadata that regular posts get, and reblogs can be chained. This means, in theory, I could reblog nex3's reblog and I…

## Progress Update: August 1st, 2026

_2026-08-01 · Monospace Games_

The soundboard is now functionally complete but it still lacks assets. This month I'm hoping to develop a small library of sample sounds, implement a few instrument presets, and maybe some alternate skins. Once those are out of the way I intend to release a new version of the engine, and continue catching up with the documentation work.

## Progress Update: July 1st, 2026

_2026-07-01 · Monospace Games_

Last month went as planned - I completed the sandboxing work for the time being, documented it in the manual, and returned to working on the soundboard. Most of the soundboard work so far has been about elaborating the features and the general look and feel of the program. This month I'm hoping to continue that work, and see if I can get it demo-ready.

## Progress Update: June 1st, 2026

_2026-06-01 · Monospace Games_

Sandboxing work continues - since the last progress update I've mostly been working on improving the sandboxing features of stateful APIs such as Window and Audio. In June I'm hoping to finish this work, update the documentation to reflect the changes implemented over the last two months, and hopefully bubble back up to where I had left off, which was the soundboard app.

## Progress Update: May 1st, 2026

_2026-05-01 · Monospace Games_

My main concern over April was implementing the sandboxing fixes I had mentioned in the previous progress update, and generally improving the engine's sandboxing capabilities. This work is now mostly finished but certain aspects of it still need to be ironed out, so this month I'm hoping to focus on that.

_2026-04-01 · Monospace Games_

Over the last month I worked on implementing the Keyboard API, which you can read about here - the gist of it is that it allows direct access to the keyboard state, and is intended to supplement the keymap API. Afterwards I noticed some issues in the engine's sandboxing implementation, and I'm currently working on fixing them.

I don't think there's much to say actually. I think this card wants be run as a 1 or 2-of in a decent number of non-bad publicity focused decks, and that means it's a pretty good card. Lots of money y'all. If you want more opinions on bad publicity, please read Veronica's piece on this card and Editorial Division.

Before I talk about Let Them Dream, I need to talk about 5/3s. The job of the 5/3 agenda is to win you the game in 3 agendas, and decks that run 5/3s usually want to score out with any combination of two 2-pointers and one 3-pointer. But the 5/3 has one major vice: they kinda suck. They're so much harder to score out than 4/2s (or 3/2s!), and their payoff usually isn't even worth the work! This is…

I have no idea what was going on in 2022.) The only card that's as much of a staple in these decks as Ikawah Project is Global Food Initiative (which might be relevant to my next card review).

Under the hood it uses the Lezer parsing and highlighting system, which is inspired by the gold standard of syntax highlighting used in all modern code editors except Visual Studio Code: tree-sitter.

## Progress Update: February 1st, 2026

January was a bit slow on the programming front, I tied up the few loose ends regarding sound work in the engine and put active development on the back burner a bit to focus on my art and sound skills. I hope to continue this approach for a few more weeks at least, and then begin work on the soundboard.

While this can be an interesting breaker that requires support to function, I’m moreso eyeing it as a way to enable ice destruction. Barriers are the most high value targets for Arruaceiras Crew, and Corsair can destroy a Pharos using 3 stealth credits and the tag + 2 credits ability on Crew. Logjam can be even cheaper. All of this depends on the set printing enough stealth support to make that…
