I kind of accidentally recreated Celeste's dream sequence memorial dedication by mapping how text changes in a text file to MIDI notes and speeding it up a bunch. Also is accurate depiction of squirrel mind when programming. It reads three characters as a set of three notes. The initial note to start with is relative mapping with a basis of C to C3. Then for every new character, the note is shifted up/down according to the difference between two characters. English as music is chaos.
They blew up my construction ship in a valuable system, with living metal, so I had another one go in with my starting fleet. Managed to take control of it and I immediately upgraded to starbase and built a gun battery and some defensive platforms. Will definitely be my bastion.
