Motivational boosterage!

Post by JS Lemming »

Aight, I finally decided to try this out. I opened up notepad and typed some of the stuff I need to do with meh game. Here it be:

Code: Select all

Things to do!

  Spin rectangle around player, origin at arm-pit
  Make the rectangle controllable via analog
  Create movement limitations such as how high to lift saw

  Create a general enemy class
  produce an enemy on the map

  Create collision detection on the saw with the enemy

  Create suppa koo blood engine!
  Test the blood on the saw and enemy
I know this is easy to just remember in your head, but this has an advantage. See normally I think of like 5 different things that need to be done at once. This makes me depressed as I feel bloated with work. But with the checklist above, I can concentrate on one and only one thing at once. And it will make me happy to be able to "check" each one of those mugs off when I beat them.

Post your checklists! Be motivated!

In case I worried you Gyrovorbis, the Bombaman editor is top priority above that list. Besides, I don't even have my DC devv'en equipment set up cause my parents are selling some antique crap to these old greasy guys. So I have to wait for them to move the anitquities from the room before I can set up camp.
