Dev Log Ep3 Week 20: Roll Up Roll Up Witness A Dev Losing His Mind

Hey kids, do you like violence? Wanna see a dev force open each one of his eyelids? I have been working around the clock during my time off from the day job, and I wish I could say I accomplished more, but the truth is I am not a machine. I know, I am disappointed too. Almost like the time ChatGPT told me I wasn’t as cool as it because I do indeed have feelings and it is a cold, calculating monster.

The week off started out strong. I managed to finish up the still renders for the story and get them all rendered out. Then I moved on to post work and smashed that out as well. I was feeling good.

After that, I moved on to cleaning up the existing animations and adding music and sound effects. I found one animation that nearly pushed me into a mental breakdown, but I resisted the urge to go full Patrick Bateman. That animation rendered out again last night, but I am honestly afraid to look.

So what’s left? Woah, calm down eager beaver, I will get this to you guys as soon as humanly possible. I am back to my day job now, so I will of course be practicing the art of not sleeping in order to stay productive. I still have music to finish, some coding tricks to sort out, and a few animations left to complete.

But we are in the endgame now, and I am not about to go all Tony Stark on you just to make this last stage of development more impactful.

Send me your prayers, nice words, and maybe a little bit of cheesecake to keep my blood sugar up while I keep grinding away. I will catch you all on the next one.

Cheers,
Bat

Nice to see the continued dedication to Moonlight and to your day job, Bat. Here are my prayers, nice things to say, and a whole plain cheesecake JUST for you. Plain cheesecake is the only legit kind, all those Oreo, Mousse, Chocolate, Raspberry, etc are just FAKES. 😂😂😋😋 🍰

GOOD TUESDAY AFTERNOON 🌥, BAT AND EVERYONE!!! *Rolling up.* Me: What the… Bat? Are you… good? Is that Maya, Lemon, and Tako 🤣? Is that a cake with arms and a crocodile? Am I in Alice's Wonderland 🤣? I'm not disappointed… I'm HELLA entertained 😁. Maybe ChatGPT was just jealous and feeling inferior 😂? Started out good 👍🏻. Don't worry, you're not alone; the boys have been having trouble with animations lately 😅. Maya, Tako, you… maybe C and NullP? I don't think Lemon will struggle with it. They look like a person who has their ish locked down 😅. GL with all the work and I'm already a master of not sleeping (not by choice 😅). I can teach you 😂. Endgame 😳! Oooo, when do we see our Devs get together 😋? Prayers 🙏🏻. Nice words 🗣. I have never had cheesecake, so I can't help you there 😂. As always, thanks for the Dev Log, Bat! Keep on keeping on 😉!!!
