I can feel it in my core on Day 74.
Like really, just moving around feels a little achy within my trunk. In retrospect I should have had an alternating routine for legs or something, but ah well. I'm sticking to my guns, I won't alter the deal.

I'll continue to crush it! You shall be avenged.
Day 46 - Piano 15 min
I refreshed a bit on the previous song, which by the way was a chopped down beginner version of The Entertainer. But now I'm learning the new song, which is the Soundstone Melody from EarthBound. I got through it on the right hand. Next is learning the left hand, then doing both, which is the challenging part

Hold on there, you can't just post a picture with a cameo appearance like it's nothing. I'm gonna have to request an actual picture of that doggy.

All that matters is getting it in haha. Already getting testing on mobile?! Movin fast. Also congrats on gettin to the 3rd and final act. Now for the real challenge.
Actually, it only took a few minutes! There's a screw under there that attaches the motor to the damper shaft. You simply unscrew it, pop off the old motor, pop on the new one, and screw it in.
Day 3: We have a twofer today, since I had a bit of spare time. The first thing was I finally ran the new HDMI 2.1 cables I bought behind the drywall for the TV. The old wire hiders that used adhesive tape to stick to the wall tore things up a bit, so I had to patch and paint. Not perfect, but not super noticeable unless you get super close.
Before (you can see the old wire hiders on the bottom left of the TV):
After:
For the second thing, I have this sliding barn door I installed in that room to help the noise from my loud gaming / movie watching travel downstairs. Well, I finally got around to installing a handle into it. Needed to buy a router to do it properly:
I've always wanted to run my own entertainment cabling through the walls. Alas the pains of renting. That's a lotta work done! Good work.
Nice get. You end up making it to the gym today?
Catchin a good rhythym. Enjoy the the distance tomorrow. Good time to test a change of pace. Make sure to not burn yourself out though. Sustainability and all that.
Gonna get that 24 pack. Speaking of which, you going to add more full body stuff after you cross the finish line? Also, one more wake up until you're in the 4th quarter!
Game music sounds like a good motivator. Playin any Nobuo Uematsu (final fantasy) pieces would be killer. Some day I'll dedicate the time haha. 2 days and a wake up till the mighty 7x7. Looks like you've gotten right back into the habit with no struggles so far. Good work!
As for myself, day 4 of game dev complete. Bulk of weight painting complete and got animation retargeting tested. Ran some animations and revealed a few more touch up points for both texture painting and weight painting, but good enough for a nice saturday gif. Going to shift gears to additional modeling and assets tomorrow anyways. Bulk work now, cleanup later. Please excuse the lack of anti-aliasing.
Now for check-ins. ZackieChan Jenkins Rhaknar Servbot24 , where we at?
It's double the work because that's an exterior wall, so it's filled with insulation. One day I'll pull down the TV and actually run some conduit through there and do everything super right. .
Day 4:
Did the other door handle for the other side of the barn door and helped Mrs. Transistor hang up some curtains
Day 75 is my moment to strive.
This was proof of concept to myself and I intended to expand from here as a foundation. But I don't want to plan too far ahead. First I need to win my fight.
Yeah, I'm going to switch things up. First I'm going to give myself 2 days of recovery and then start an alternating exercise routine. I'm much more confident and determined now than when I started; in order to push for more challenging exercises. I think I will try to convert my 20 subset into full burpees first.

Day 67 for headstands and day 4 for game dev! I moved my headstand support from the couch to the bed and now I feel like I'm improving again. I don't feel like I'm leaning against something as much and I've started doing headstand pushups there. It's tough, but I can do like 1... and a half, before I fall over.
On game dev, I didn't make Screenshot Saturday since a lot of my changes are behind the scenes, modifying experience formulas and messing with arrays... but I think I'll have one for next week. I put in a max level feature, you need to fuse spirits to increase your max level stat. Fusion isn't in yet... but it will be soon.
Nice animation, btw. I love the personality it exudes.

I think mobile might be my main platform... it just feels a lot better on it, at least early in in dev anyway. Maybe when I add controller support it'll feel better on computer.All that matters is getting it in haha. Already getting testing on mobile?! Movin fast.

In the end you'll be an unstoppable exercise machine. At this point you pretty much already are. Welcome to the 4th quarter!
Sounds like new avenues for progress on both sides. Great work!
Anytime, and I understand. I know a good number of people that have had to take a recent break from this place. Thanks for checking in when ya did and keeping all of this alive. You've definitely done your fair share of keeping this thread alive and keeping people on track. Thanks Zackie!
As for myself, day 5 of game dev complete. Screenshots posted and animation controller built. Not a huge amount of progress but something added at least. Gotta be honest every weekend I go on twitter to post for visibility, the wall of talent and great indie games is both amazing and intimidating/disheartening. With a fulltime job and as a solo dev lord knows if I'll ever get this complete, but I guess I may as well get a few years straight under my belt first before I completely give up hahaha.
Now for check-ins. Rhaknar Pookmunki Jenkins Servbot24 PBalfredo DrBillRiverman , we still holdin on out there?
Just make sure you keep a reasonable scope for your first project, and keep at it until it's finished. Doesn't need to be perfect - you just need to get it out there. Game 2 will be much better!
Mrs. Transistor is the good one at that. Me? Not so much. 😄
Day 5: Replaced the crappy chrome fixtures in the master bath and guest bath with nicer looking brushed nickel ones.
The faucets were easy. The drains? That's a different story.
I am here. And I did complete DAY 18 the other day.
I was a bit I'll so I didn't get the run in, but I did do some gentle cycling in the indoor bike.
Haven't gone today yet, but still time. So will post again when I've completed my day

Day 76, now I earned my time for some flicks.
Thanks, this is still effin' hard though. I'm so glad it's a long weekend. I'm gonna relax so the muscles can repair after all of this mass destruction.

Lookin nice. Let me know when you get to the fun of wax seal replacement. One day and a wake up until you cross the first week threshold.
Good work getting out there still. Make it today as well?

Smart move. Tomorrow's you're lucky day.
Hey, atleast you got something in. That's what matters. I do not miss dealing with big gyms and their weird contracts. Miss the smaller gym I used to go to near my work.
Good work. Getting pretty high up there in numbers. A day and a wake up will the big 70s.
Killer work. Tomorrow you're at 7 weeks! Quite the run.
As for myself, Day 6 of game dev complete. Incorporated the animation controller and got the core of movements working. Still need to work on blend trees but want to get back to deeper code soon.
Now for check-ins. Rhaknar Jenkins Pookmunki Servbot24 , we still aimin for the top?
I've done it before, but yeah, it is a major pain in the ass. 😄
Day 6: Took it a bit easy today, as I was still sore from crawling under all the sinks to replace those faucets. So I organized my cable bins. Everything is ordered perfectly and I got rid of a ton of junk and broken things.
So completed DAY 19 yesterday evening. Very nearly let it slip by, but hauled myself up to do at least 20 minutes of gentle pedaling.
And today I finally got a proper run in to complete DAY 20
So 1/5 of the way!
And actually I'd like to add a second goal to track as I've been putting in time for a little bit of exercise daily but haven't done much to fix my diet. So I'd like to put in a goal to remain under my calorie count daily! Starting from today!

Took a break from Rhythm Heaven to post on Day 77.
I have no deadly sins to confess on this day. My conscience is clear without a guilty spark in sight. Pushups are done, now time for fun. My seven forced references are just about exhausted. Now I should try my luck at the Gold Saucer.
Great work out there samurai!

Good work! Tomorrow you hit a one week streak of this. That's quite a bit of housework hahaha.
Congrats on the big 20! Sounds good on the secondary. I'll put it on the board. Do be sure to prioritize that first keystone. Don't want them competing and getting in each other's way in the sense of motivation.
All 7s! Killer work again Ultimate. Coming up pretty quick on the final fifth! Feelin good about it?
Nice! 69/6 one more wake up and you're at the big 70 (ten straight weeks!) and a full week of game dev. It's been one hell of a come back.
As for myself, day 7 of game dev done. Burnt a good amount of time on shader work that was completely superfluous. Could have spent my time more wisely and didn't completely get it working so felt like a time dump. Mainly was attempting an affect and was hoping I could do it directly in the frag shader without having to do anything in the render pipeline but so far no luck. Still got some learning in so not a total waste.
Now for check-ins. PBalfredo Anustart Servbot24 Pookmunki Rhaknar, where we at? Haven't heard from some of you in a while...
I'm loving it, actually! So many projects that don't take too long to do, but I've just let them build up because (frankly) I was lazy. This is so refreshing!
Day 7: Light day today. Spent most of the day with family, but I was able to draw up a scale Visio diagram of my theater room so I can start some design plans for it. Also helped Mrs. Transistor hang some new towel rods and stuff in the guest bathroom.
Completed Day 9 on Friday, failed Saturday and Sunday since I was out of town on a family trip. Traveling has really been a downfall for me so far. I could do some work while I'm out of town I just get distracted.
Monday and today are done for day 1 and 2. Started doing some test panel layouts.

Tis a shame I can't find a link that plays in-thread. :[
Oh I'm feelin' it all right! It is kind of exciting getting this close. I'm both contradictorily tired and energized at the same time. I knew this last leg was gonna be rough, but yeesh. All the more reason to follow through tho. I just got to keep the rhythm, get down, and booooogiiiiiiiieeeee!!

Just got home from the gym :3
Ran a mile and got some good weights in. Hand is feeling a lot better though it's like 98% still not 100.
8:06 mile, new gym doesn't have a fan so boy did I get hot. Feels great to be working out again. Was worried the long break would have put an end to me.

Day 70 for head stands. Working in lunges and squats now, it's kind of become just a full body workout.
And day 7 for game dev. Got enough done to participate in #PitchYaGame. I wanted to get the fusion system at least partially working for that, but I ran out of time. So I guess that will have to be saved for #ScreenshotSaturday instead.

Went super late today so just doing a quick self check in for day 8 of game dev. More shader work even though I shouldn't have wasted time on it. I need to let myself let it go hahaha. I get far too obsessive sometimes.
Killer work as it seems we basically got everyone checking in today that's a regular! A bit rare.
I'll be back with actual comments in the morning haha.
Still going to ping those away though. Rhaknar and Pookmunki gonna come back to us? I'm not gonna give up hope.

Day 79 is over without a punchline.
And with that out of the way, I'm done with the 70s.

Day 9: Installed a new dishwasher and took a somehow very crooked picture of it!
BONUS: Fixed some wiring on my wife's car radio that we had Car Toys install. They double amped it and couldn't figure out how to fix it.

Day 80. I feel like binging a classic anime while wearing my Z-tee.
This will be a day long remembered. It has seen the end of Sarutobi. It will soon see the end of the Sauce. Too bad his rival is as clumsy as he is stupid, but when he left him he was but a learner. Now he is the master.
I've gotten pretty far in my challenge. I've controlled my fear. Now, I must release my anchor. Only my dated memes can destroy me. I just have to be careful not to choke on my aspirations.
I sometimes worry about this physiological habit I have contructed. The ability to destroy a pomegranate is insignificant to the power of the farce. I just remind myself, "You don't know the poweeeeer of the wild side. You must obey your heart."

Day 51 - Exercise. Push ups and free weights
Day 52 - Piano. The left hand for this song is a bit tricky because there is a lot of movement around the keyboard and I'm looking online to find what's the proper way hand movement so I don't develop bad habits. Also, chord practice.

Day 72 for headstands. I think I'm getting better with supported pushups, but I can still only do 1 before I fall over so I'm doing several reps of 1 each day.
Day 9 for game dev. Fixed my bug with exp going over max level, it was dumb, I wasn't accounting for the exp that the spirit already had at the time. I also think I fixed a tricky bug I had with exp progress bars not auto filling but I'll have to dig more into that tomorrow. I'm still working on the fusion system but not sure if I'll have anything for that to show off for this Screenshot Saturday.

Killer work. About to hit double digits.
Groans or not, you did it and that's all that maters. Also, if I've got my numbers right, that puts you 15, so not only passed the 2 week threshold but also at a new personal best! Killer work.

The big 80! You're less than 3 weeks from the finish line!
Killer work! Getting that incremental work in is way more important than screenshot saturday. Even more so that tomorrow is the double digit milestone for game dev!
Great triple deuces. Great work passing the 3 week milestone! Hitting those calorie targets amazingly well! 2 days and a wake up and you're already a quarter of the way through the workout path.
Man that does sound like a good day. Good to have you back!
Good work. I'm sure everyone is looking forward to the previews. I know I am. You've had amazing stuff so far.
Yeah, learning the finger cross seems like a hard bout. That said, sounds like your grind is paying off. Also major congrats in breeching the half way point! You're now closer to the finish line than when you started!
As for myself, day 9 of game dev yesterday was more shader work (still couldn't stop myself) and today was more modeling/asset creation for day 10. Hoping I can wrangle my day job a bit better over the next week to make more efficient dev progress, but we'll see.
Now for check-ins. Pookmunki and Rhaknar , I know you're out there. I see them posts... Ever coming back to us? I swear it's not a cult. A quiet pm to be put on the long pause is judgement free as well. Just know I'll keep pinging here until the end of days unless I'm told to stop haha.
Day 5 done, more test panels.
Here's a test panel example. It is probably meaningless to anyone but me, but in this page the main character is wandering through the wilderness towards a light, while she is followed by a bounty hunter. The goal with these is just to crank them out as quickly as possible so I can get an idea of how the story is paced.

Day 81, 20 more days until I'm done! Or beginning...or continuing...nm you get me.
The high pushup count is tiring me out, but I'm catching up that count here in the final fifth! I just need a boost of energy. OH WAIT!
Thanks yo! I'm gonna run up this mountain the rest of the way.
