I can't really think of that. It's more often that it's like, within... there's a lot of could ofs...
Bathing
Q: Dan, when I saw you at the beginning of this process, which was, I think the day after you had a working build, you were telling me about how you were really happy to re-approach this algorithm, having a lot more mastery over the digital domain than when you originally made Dweller. Can you talk about that?
It was fun because I get to be like, I don't know how limited I am in terms of stages, but 12 sounds really good, and I was like, I built Darkstar and then Black Fountain on top of that and was working on another prototype and then redirected to doing Bathing.
The Black Fountain Special
Q: What kind of oil do you reckon would be cool for different tones?
Olive oil, coconut oil, or even old frying oil could resonate different tones when used in an oil can delay.
