it's been a lot of work, but my current project is just about at a playable prototype! I'm so glad I can just game dev all day, though obviously a lot of that time is spent doing it for my job. especially excited because the game is basically just some menus, so mechanically it's almost done!

making a game about my game dev process is very VERY introspective. like I'm realizing that yeah, I have as much fun working on other peoples games as I do working on my own. BUT the required hours for work make it more draining imo, not the work itself

my childhood dog is losing her hearing :( it's really bittersweet that she gets to have nice quiet days and peaceful naps whenever she wants, but she's losing a little bit of the outside world and that's just so sad I'm glad she's happy and doing well at least but this makes me really sad

man the Internet is just not fun to use anymore, huh

there is only one path and that is the path that you take, amirite

i don't want to be too negative on here but I'm watching the new marathon stuff and like... why does hiddenXperia keep getting invited to stuff. that dude has just made slop hate content for years now, right? that's why I quit watching him a long time back he's better than latenightgaming at least

ngl my heart kinda tightened up heading that voice (durandal??? is it his voice???) like if that's durandal, it feels insane that I'm just now hearing what he sounds like after reading his lines on my mom's iPad so long ago

SEPTEMBER 23??? HOLY SHIT

stop smoking. start gaming

REAL GAME DEV HOURS HAPPENING TOMORROW MORNING. this isn't a stream announcement or anything I'm just excited to have time to work on my game :)))

I ended up reworking a huge chunk of the codebase and it took less time than I spent trying to make that function work and I had more fun because I was making progress :) i should've taken a break and reevaluated like 2 hours in, huh. lesson learned

this is how I found out there was a new black mirror season

Bad AAPL

rough coding day. I was just bashing my head against my code trying to get a unity netcode function to work in my defense, troubleshooting one function seemed easier than reworking my entire codebase, but after 6 hours of almost no progress I think I gotta bite the bullet here gamedev is rough

netcode is not fun. I'm learning a lot but man this is TOUGH and TEDIOUS and I've been having to do trial-and-error debugging a lot and that's just the worst :( and it's not even for my game! it's for my job or whatever
