<p>In August I implemented scene switching, which allowed me to do the following:</p>
<ul>
<li>pressing "Start the game" button in the splash screen takes the player to a level with three floors</li>
<li>selecting a door takes the player to another floor</li>
<li>selecting a TV set focuses the player on the TV set with a remote control</li>
<li>switching TV channels results in different images being shown</li>
</ul>
<p>Thus, scenes are good both for focusing on items and moving the player around.</p>

<p>I plan to implement replay of short sounds in September.</p>

<p>I stumbled upon an interesting <a href="https://www.konstantinschubert.com/2019/03/30/time-after-taxes.html">"Time after tax"</a> post. The author briefly
tells how after spending time on mandatory day to day
activities (sleep, work, commute, wash, etc.) he is only left with
3 hours of free time. The author calls this "Time after tax".</p>
<p>That concept explains where I take time for "Tail and Shadow" project.
For example, I managed to spend 27 hours for the project in August, that's
about 1 hour a day. Of course, one would spend 27 hours on a full-time job 
in 3-4 days, but a job won't let you make your dream come true.</p>
<p>Do you use "time after tax"?</p>
