Been a rough week so far.

The schedule I had planned is going to have to get thrown out the window it seems. I had initially planned on spending two days this week working on a project and the other two days working on learning how to be a better graphics programmer. Time to change some things around I guess.

So having actually purchased the Gamemaker Studio master license on a Steam Sale, it seems best to use it to release my first game or two to try to afford a non-student copy of Visual Studio 2010 and maybe a legitimate Unity license. The only issue I have with this has been coming up with a game I want to make with Gamemaker that makes sense for mobile.

I tried to do some research yesterday on my tablets but comfort caused sleep as I was somewhat deprived yesterday. So maybe today I can try out a few games and get a few ideas.

Overall this week has been something of a write off.

On a personal level, me and my wife have been preparing ourselves for our garage sale this weekend. We're hoping to earn enough money for the kids to get some nice stuff. The twins are starting to sleep through larger parts of the night so it's time to start considering a crib for them. As well our older daughter has been growing like a weed and needs some new clothes BADLY. The hard part of this garage sale is going to be saying good by to years of my video gaming life as I sell my old NES, SNES, N64, Game Cube, Xbox, Dreamcast Game Boy, and Game Boy Advance. I feel like none of those are going to last particularly long at the sale, but we'll see.

We're just generally making room in the apartment seeing how right now we have almost no room, and the job hunt has yet to cash in. But my hopes are still high on that one seeing as how it's only been two weeks and the video game industry is a ruthless industry to deal with. But I would like to congratulate a few of my colleagues from my graduating class, Max, Curtis, and Nikita, for all finding jobs in the industry. I wish all three of you the best, the industry knew what they were looking for in the three of you.

So today's docket - come up with a game and power prototype it!!!!!!

Until Tomorrow: WIRED IN!!!!!!!!!!!!
