I&#8217;ve been tired after working all day and just wanted to relax. But, today was a bit of a better day, so I decided to post before I resigned from computers for the day. My new job has picked up workwise this week, now that I&#8217;m more familiar with the latest version of the software. A lot has changed since I last used it four years ago. Still, I was able to do some updates to a failing script. It now works the way the client wants it to, which is essential. I have a meeting with the client tomorrow to go over everything for user acceptance testing to make sure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What&#8217;s Next?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>First, I need to make it through the rest of the week. However, since it is Wednesday, the week is half over, so I&#8217;m confident it will be better. Nevertheless, I&#8217;m shocked at how short the weekend feels. After focusing on game development for the past four years is hard working for &#8220;the man.&#8221; Anyway, back to what&#8217;s next. I will be writing a short tutorial on the weekend and getting it up on the site. I don&#8217;t want to go into anything too deep, though. I have a lot of other things that need to get done as well. Likely, I will display the player character&#8217;s stats and fix the health and mana\/stamina bug. That sounds like a good topic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">My Projects<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Sadly, I don&#8217;t have any projects to work on at the moment. I mean, I have some works in progress. However, I don&#8217;t have time to work on them with everything else in life. However, I did take a day for myself last week to work on the endless runner. I want to finish that at some point and get it up on the App Store and Google Play. I could do it for Windows as well, under UWP. I&#8217;ve not released under that platform, though. Still, it is MonoGame and porting the code would not be that hard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final Thoughts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Working full-time again has been more difficult than I had anticipated. But, at least it is remote, so there is no commute. That would add a couple of hours to each day that is already full enough. Also, it will be nice to do some writing on the weekend. I do miss it when I don&#8217;t do it, and it helps me feel better. Also, it&#8217;s giving back to the community. So, please keep coming back to the blog for the latest news on my tutorials and other goodness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Good luck with your game programming adventures!<br>Cynthia<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">P.S.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you think a newsletter would be better than visiting the blog, please drop a comment letting me know, and I will look at reviving my newsletter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, I didn&#8217;t post the past two days.
