I've spent years overthinking business ideas, money, fatherhood, work, films, games, AI and whether I locked the car 3 days ago. So naturally I started a newsletter. First post live -overthinkersclub.beehiiv.com…
Adaptive music:
The more loot you collect, the more dangerous space becomes.
The more dangerous it becomes, the more intense the soundtrack gets.
Making my 2d space extraction looter indie game’s adaptive music is the most fun I’ve had making this game. Forget coding. My 20 years of music production is coming in handy.
A month ago I had absolutely no idea how to make a game.
Tonight I changed a white triangle into a spaceship for my top-down space salvage extraction game (what a niche, ha).
It’s still ugly.
It’s probably coded terribly. Yellow flags means it works. Haha
And half the time I break things I fixed yesterday.
But it’s becoming a real game.
One tiny step at a time.
A man online asked me Why men keep everything to ourselves. overthinkersclub.beehiiv.com…
If you’re a father in your late 30s trying to build a better life while pretending you’ve got everything figured out…
You might recognise some of this.

My three-year-old got pushed off a trampoline today. overthinkersclub.beehiiv.com…
Went to watch Karate Kid: The Musical.
A story of a kid becoming best friends with a 70 year old man.
Going to Back to the Future musical next month.
A story of a kid becoming best friends with a 70 year old man.
Can’t wait until we get Up the musical.
It feels like a lot of people making money with AI are actually making money on YouTube by telling people how to make money with AI.
You know that feeling when a moment is absolutely perfect.
Then for absolutely no reason your brain goes:
“Yeah but one day this ends.”
What’s that about?
Overthinkers. Quick question.
Is it overthinkers?
Over thinkers?
Over-thinkers?
Asking for absolutely no reason whatsoever. 🫠
Wrote this week’s newsletter about how adulthood is mostly guessing: overthinkersclub.beehiiv.com…
Think I just dislocated a finger putting fitted sheets on my mattress.
Didn’t have “getting beat up by my bed” on tonight’s plans.
One is the new Ferrari Luce costing £500K.
The other is the Nissan Leaf.
Only one has enough space for a toddlers bike, snacks and 400 loose raisins.
I know which one I’m choosing.
What about you?
My toddler just used his elbow and 100% of his body weight directly on my thigh.
I saw what God looked like.
