Welcome to the deadzone…

There’s nothing to do… no groups in, no kids running around like loonies, high on sugar… nothing. Just this warden’s conference and a lot of nice food.

I go home on the 13th December, so I’m just finding things to do in the meantime to make time pass. It’s not that working here is getting boring, it’s just there’s bugger-all to do. What I’d really like is a big fat Internet connection, there’s a load of bookmarks of interesting looking websites I want to visit, but over my mobile it’ll run up a huge bill. I’ve also got loads of mad ideas for a game, but lack the knowledge to make it work (I’ve also only got half the game idea in my head too, I’m hoping my subconscious fills in the rest for me).

Hopefully I should get the mechanics of Chuckie finished soon, it almost saves the hiscores to the cart, there’s just a bit of weirdness with my hiscore sorting code that needs bludgeoning into submission. After that and the UI twaddle I just need to make the baddies work.

So yes, I’m going to spend my time finishing Chuckie’s UI twaddle and try to ignore the Damn Ladders which don’t work properly.

When I go home I’m going to grab loads of info on 3d maths and hopefully some of it will make sense to me. I think the GBA will be fast enough to run my 3d heightmap code…
