Take a shower at Fridays...
About work...
Well, this week I had a lot of problems with the Mastermind code. It's not that the code has problems, it's me—50% of the time I don't know what I'm doing...
Most of the girls' text in the game is the same, with expressions changing here and there to create the Kuleshov effect. So I found myself having to write a lot of conditional statements, phrase by phrase, to create different expressions. Obviously, there are other ways to do it, and I started trying things out. In short, after the whole week, yesterday I found a decent way to do it, but I wasted more time than I want to admit finding the solution.
Still, I'll probably encounter more problems like that in the near future.
The good news? Once this update is complete, the new code I'll need is simpler, and I'll only have to spend time writing and drawing. Please keep your fingers crossed for me!
Apart from the code, I made progress on some commissions, you can see some of them on Discord.
I also shared a draft of a comic on Discord, but I'll probably change the pages, even though the story is more or less the same. For some reason, it's difficult to do and I don't want to get stuck on the panels because of that, so thank you for your patience!
Work in progress: some pencil sketches of a future enemy...
The picture...
Demi Moore in the movie About Last Night... By the way, the guy is Rob Lowe.
As usual, I didn't see it and I don't even know what it's about.
This week I saw Birdcage (great movie), but I couldn't find a decent screen for the post, maybe next week.
Aside work...
I think that this week, apart from the code, everything has gone pretty well. I've gone back to the gym and this time I've changed the way I exercise. I spend 30 minutes on the elliptical trainer and then I do weights until my body can't take any more. I try to do it as slowly as possible, but I do the last ones at normal speed with the heaviest weight I can lift.
I'm in very poor physical shape, but I think I could improve if I manage to go to the gym four days a week for about six months. By then, I'll look for information on how to start strength training,
because it's the best exercise for high blood pressure (at least that's what my doctor told me).
New game, this time a famous one, because a friend gave it to me last Christmas.
Expedition 33. I don't know what to say, the game is strange, the mystery is so entertaining that I feel like spending hours trying to figure out what's going on here. I also like the French atmosphere, I find it very original.
In that sense, I feel something similar to what I felt when I played Blasphmeous...
Anyway, that's all for now...
The song...
The French game needs some French music...
