Dev Log Ep3 Week 18: In The Air Tonight

Hey, I didn’t see you there. Don’t mind me, I’m just having my biweekly soak in the tub. Things have been kind of quiet here this week at Big Bat HQ. No reluctant guests, just me and my boy H here chilling out.

In between the rather heated four hour debates I have with the voices in my head and the resulting two hour crying sessions, I have actually done a fair bit this week, so let’s break it down.

Renders have not been crazy this week. I got 99 out the door. Why didn’t I do 100? Well, fuck you, that’s why. Also, I didn’t have the ability since I need to do a small animation before I can continue the last scene of the update. A fantastic, totally unplanned side effect of that is it leaves me on 1969. You get it. The same year as the Moon landing, right? Oh, your mind went somewhere else. Get that shit out of the gutter. This is serious art.

“Is that all, motherfucker?” Wow, okay, a little hostile there. But no, or maybe, I’m not sure. I wasn’t listening. I also got another animation into the game. That means there are definitely more than one and less than one hundred. I have no idea, I lost count.

“Update when, bitch?” Okay, now you’re starting to sound like Mister Maya. Calm down, it’s coming. So what’s left to do? I have about 100 renders or so left, then I need to get the unlockables done, as well as the music and a handful of animations. So it is coming, just not as fast as Howie when he sees an armpit. If you don’t know Howie, lucky you, but also shame on you. He makes a game called Past Tense. Not sure how it’s going to end up, but he’s a real character and for that alone I love the guy.

Right, what else… I’ve lost my train of thought. I’ll just wrap it up here and see if I can get my man H to scrub my back.

Until next time, peace out. Take care, and remember to call your mum, she misses you.

Thanks for everything.
