Work Post
4:40am - As it happens I'm doing more work tonight. I managed to deal with that irl stuff okay and took a break and now I'm back. I'm feeling kind of depressed lately so it's hard to do anything but work. Ahh well.
I happened to notice the GDQuest Finate State Machine example and their demo for it is really quite nice. I'll probably end up remaking it in my own game.
4:48am - I ought to mention it now that my mind has wandered to it again, that I've been thinking of yet another project I'd like to do. I don't plan on doing it while I'm working on this project, but maybe as a future project?
What I want to do is make something like what Spore was trying to do, but open-source.
Start by making an easy to use creature creator with huge potential and procedurally generate the animations based on the body shape and maybe an option list for internals. Then make it output the model, animations, and everything in a variety of common formats so it can be used in whatever.
Then I'd want to make a world for these creatures to inhabit. Ideally it would be a multiplayer, real-time physics based world, with players controlling bodies they designed themselves.
I could probably just keep adding to a system like that for my whole life and never run out of stuff to do.
But that's future me's project. Right now I've got a game to work on.
5:11am - I continue! It's almost time to take my medicine apparently. I'll have to do that soon. But first, a word from our sponsor, PAID SPONSOR LEGENDS yeah I'm just feeling silly. Right now I'm still checking out that FSM demo I downloaded. It comes with an improved one over the original demo too, so that's neat.
5:38am - Medicine taken and head currently out of sorts. I'm not sure if I'm just burned out from the night or just shaken for the moment, but I can't seem to think straight about my programming at the moment. Break time I guess.
5:41am - After breaking for a few minutes I've realized it's not just my code brain that's funky right now, I'm going to go lay down and maybe work on this more later.
