Sometimes you need a break from the same project you've been working on forever, but when it is a productive break, it is even better. Corvus: I've been following the saga of the cards on your blog, so I knew you had a lot on your plate. Thanks for taking the time!

I'm so used to company post-mortems, I can just see six middle-aged, grumpy men in a board room... "What are we going to do about these CATS?" It's also just generally great to have "one-person" post-mortems. It serves as a source of inspiration and knowledge to wannabee game devs. I really love this post-mortem.
