2:33am - Well, the theme for Extra Credits Game Jam 5 was announced as Passage. I think that'll work for me. I was hoping to make a 2D platformer in Godot and I can think of a few ways the Passage theme could work for that.

First of all I need to make the basic 2D platformer stuff.

4:08am - I checked out a couple of Godot platformer tutorials but they were too long form, and one was too specific, but very short form. But there's a simple 2D platformer tutorial built into Godot that's just right, and I was able to mimic it pretty well for my purposes.

It's been an hour and a half though and I'm tired, so I think I'm going to finish up for the night/morning and head to bed.

7:44pm - Well, I was planning on spending all day working on the Jam, but I spent most of the day in bed sleeping. Alas!

Well I'm at the McDonalds now and I plan to stay till late.

10:21pm - I've made a lot of progress so far. I've got my Character Controller and a tileset that has proper physics on it.

Next I'm going to try and make an animated character using some CC0 sprites I got online.

10:54pm - Alright. I've got my animated sprite animating well, but it's almost 11. The McDonalds closes at midnight, but my roomie asked me to bring him home a meal, and I want to put in my order and go before it's too late. So, I'm going to pack up and go.

Next I have to make the player play the correct animation for their behavior.
