Game Patches are Keeping Me Out of Work

  Team Fortress 2 and Terraria both came out with new patches this week.  Odds are next week will have amazing sales and I'll not get anything done again.

Current Projects

  Started a whole new project due to an innovation in AI design.  I have high hopes for this one since it will let me get in a lot of coding and will require virtually no graphics.  Main character?  A green circle.  Enemies?  Red circles.  That's it, not going any better on this project.  It will stand on its AI alone.

  My bro keeps bugging me that he knows 2 graphics designers and that I should meet them.  Ya, well, he's perfectly aware that I'm a shut in... bring 'em over already.

  That being said, I can have Epilepsy Man done when I feel like animating.  Not that that's saying much since it's one character in one level against one boss and will only take 3 minutes to beat since it started as an April Fool's joke anyways.  But, it'd be nice to get something done...  maybe people will demand a sequel.  Ya, right.

Other Projects

  You know you're in a bad place when you do the bulk of your coding on post-it notes.

  A few minutes on a variety of my old projects in a melancholic "Why am I still here?" kinda review.  I'd say my progress is mostly hampered by my poor work ethic and the wads of new game releases that are actually decent.

Gaming

  Team Fortress 2 and Terraria mostly.  Finished everything I care to do in both Modern Warfare games.  Revisited Dragon Age: Origins, but I still don't get what people like about it.  I'd rather play Avernum or Nox.

  Also tried out Spiral Knights.  What's the most important thing about any game?  Being able to play it!  Limiting game time to fish for time purchases is weak sauce...  That aside, it plays ok when it's not lagging.  But, that's Java for you.

  I'm always on the look out for new games, but I hate a lot of the crap made recently.

Other

  My TV broke last month some time... still can't find a TV/VCR combo in any store.  What's the point of a TV if it doesn't have a VCR?  I can hook a standalone VCR to my computer if that's what I wanted...

I still say S-Video looks better, Lok.
