Notes by Kat Bella.https://katbella.comen-ushttps://katbella.com/notes/smaller-projectshttps://katbella.com/notes/smaller-projectsAfter spending the last few years working on an ambitious game project, I'm focused on smaller projects that let me put creativity first and build things other people can use and enjoy. Doodle Engine Doodle Engine is one of the projects I'm most excited about right now. It's my way of revisiting the story-driven side of the Infinity Engine games (like Baldur's Gate or Planescape: Torment) that first got me into interactive storytelling, while also building something that's useful and fun to use. It's a TypeScript library for narrative games, with a dialogue and quest system I've tried to keep approachable for both developers and writers. Music I've also been spending more time on music again. It's been a while since I've worked actively on a music project, but I've been experimenting with new sounds and ideas, especially around Nordic folk music, nature-inspired themes, and some of the synth-heavy sounds I still really enjoy. I may share a track or two here in the future.Sat, 07 Mar 2026 00:00:00 GMT
