Part of me feels like the limitations of PTC might be holding us back as a community- look at us, we're all young, vibrant, creative people with a passion for making games, and a passion for being friends too. Maybe if we had some other outlet for coding, over the computer, perhaps, where we all want to be anyway, sitting in front of the screen with our hands on the keyboard, we would be more inclined to share an exchange of ideas or collaborate on projects. With PTC you've got to type everything into the computer then you've got to scan a bunch of QR codes- I'm just thinking, perhaps our ambitions have grown past the limitations of PTC. Granted, we love PTC, we all have it for the same reason: you can build and play games on your DS.

All I want to say, really... is, I'm not pleased with the idea that we can all just grow apart, or never bond in the first place, or that we won't have the motivation to actually do something, or to learn more. There's this opportunity here where we can do something really unique- we haven't been around for the past hundred centuries, when there weren't things such as computers and when people wanted to use their imagination they had to come up with the right words to convey it. We're all here for a reason; it's because we all have the spark of imagination - the inner flame that lights up a world where otherwise there would be nothing but darkness.
