User blog:CaptainStarbuck/Let the fun begin!

As mentioned in Facebook, I've created a number of pages here. Most are empty - it's just a skeleton. Some pages have content - it's just initial content to start the process. Others are welcome to add-to, correct, or add comments and suggestions to each page. I'll contribute to fill in the pages until they all have some content, and I will do what I can to continue to update the pages as long as I'm playing, there is time, and while others have interest.

Who am I? Just a guy who likes to play games. I'm a developer too, so I understand how this stuff works, but I am not contributing code to this project.

I appreciate that Viktor, the game developer, has provided a game for free for us to enjoy. I think it's fair to spend some free time to try to help him as he spends his free time to make us feel good. I also understand that English is not his first language, and that it's tough for him to write docs like this by himself. So I contribute.

This is kinda the way free software is supposed to work: We pay back by doing something that helps those who help us. We pay forward because we know that in the future others will give us something and we might not be able to directly do anything for them. For example, maybe some other developer will have fun with this game, and this documentation will inspire him or her to write something else that people like. I dunno. Maybe someone will want to learn how to program because they think this game is cool (and the tools to create it are free). We never know where these efforts lead. That's the spirit of free software.
