Taking Notes
🕑 Added 2016-09-03 21:20:41 +0000 UTC The iPad and Apple Pencil have been a god send for Boss Keys. Every time I play a dungeon I put a map up on the screen and then doodle on notes, locations of keys, doors, items, and mechanisms.At the end I make a little diagram to show the layout of the dungeon. It's a new thing I've come up with, and I'll explain it fully in the Oracle episode. It's a handy, objective way of comparing dungeon complexity from dungeon to dungeon, game to game. And for visualising how a dungeon is put together.
The app is Paper, by the way, and yeah I'll release these notes at some point.

Nice build! As for the 3DS - there must be more than just ALBW that you're interested in? It's got a fab library! Kid Icarus, Mario 3D Land, Pullblox, BoxBoy, Fire Emblem Awakening, Ace Attorney. Lots of good stuff :D

Spirit Trucks, lol

Well, I guess you can save a big part of the process when you get to Phantom Hourglass/Spirit Trucks ! XD
I also use the Ipad pro for taking notes (especially when I was playing the witness). I mostly use procreate but I will now check Paper as well. I also made my own apple pencil accessory with my 3D printer :-).

I have been in doubt of doing this, because I really want to play that game, but it seems kinda nuts to spend that much money to just play one game?

I got an iPad Pro 9,7" earlier this summer and it has been great.
Amen brother!

I haven't! But it looks intriguing - cheers, I'll dig into that at some point
