=> Take the time to congratulate yourself unironically for contributing to the death of cringe.



You feel awash with pride in your recent work, and take the luxury of basking in it for a moment. You may not be viral yet, but you've taken a leap of faith. For years now you've devoted yourself to solving your world’s problems, to saving it, but you always stood in the shadows. So afraid of cultivating the wrong image that you never watered that soil at all. But this summer something finally clicked. The last month represents the most real work you've ever done towards your MISSION, and hell yeah you're proud of it.

You've finally come to understand that cringe is the death of action. So it must be your job to drag action out of its coffin and defibrillate it and throw cringe right on in there in its place and hammer some nails. Or something. You get carried away with the metaphors sometimes.

But instead of drawing all that, you just visualize these thoughts by giving the abstracted depiction of yourself a nice affirming pat on the back.

=> Then, maybe explain what your game is all about?



Suddenly you find yourself overwhelmed by the need to explain everything about Jubilation!, the video game/story/manifesto you've been developing, to someone, anyone at all. 

This happens to you a lot.

Creating things you can't publish right away for immediate gratification is HARD.

Unfortunately you currently seem to be the only person in this room, and your mutuals are probably sick to death of hearing you workshop your elevator pitch.
=>



After some consideration, you settle for expressing this energy by rambling at a PNG of your story’s main character about all the great things you're going to accomplish together, like a coder with a duck. You reckon this is marginally better than just talking to yourself.
=>



Jesus okay, you immediately kind of regret giving yourself a dialogue box. What is this, 2015?
=>



You spend another little while trying to come up with a better joke to fill said dialogue with, but you're really pretty bad at the elevator pitches and somehow this is the shortest description of the game you've managed, so you just roll with it.
=>

the revolution is now :o)
