I've had a strange urge to play Animal Crossing lately. There's something appealing about a game that you can pick up and play for about 20 minutes and accomplish something. In fact, it only takes 20 minutes to have a pretty productive "day" in Animal Crossing, but I'm still moving towards that bigger house.
There is very little that I can do to re-arrange my actual room - it's pretty much fixed. I think, instead, I'm changing my Animal Crossing house.
Anyways, Jill and I noticed that the concept - being the only (or almost) human in a town surrounded by humanoids with animal features - has certain Lovecraftian qualities. The start of the game, especially, could be written up in Lovecraft's own style.
