Congrats on your new home!  My purchase came together surprisingly quickly.  I went from offer to keys in maybe two weeks.  I didn't get a realtor so it was just a matter of dealing with theirs.  Lawyers did their thing, documents were signed mostly digitally.

I didn't do an inspection because it's a condo in a well-maintained building, and a lot of common pain points (roof, hot water boiler) were external to my unit anyway.  Still a bit risky, but it worked out.  Though six years later the dishwasher leaked and destroyed my floors, so that was neat.  Don't skimp on homeowners insurance -- it saved my butt.

I don't know how to design games.  I just have strong opinions on them after they're made.

to get game ideas i just play other games. was playing deltarune ch3/4 and like a million idears came into my head

that being said i dont make games bc too distracted by other life stuff atm. Soon™ though

in terms of making "100 cute games" i think you have to be good at scope management + Just Making Something as opposed to trying to be very perfectionist. esp cuz producitvity in general is very momentum based. doing a little bit of something is a huge step up from doing nothing at all
