Not Giving Up!
So, I’ve obviously slipped a few days here, but rest assured, the experiment is far from over. I need to take a small break, is all. Two birthdays in a row (myself and Jess) wore me out for the past couple weeks; it doesn’t help that 4 or 5 ABSOLUTE MUST PLAY NOW games have dropped recently. Also, I leave for 10 days in Tokyo in a few days here, and it’s unrealistic for me to think I’ll be tasking over there.
Until I start posting regularly again (most likely at the end of October), I’ll be studying up on some excellent textbooks: Game Physics Engine Development and Real-Time Collision Detection, both in the Morgan Kaufmann Series in Interactive 3D Technology. They’re both pretty excellent so far, just about the most comprehensive books on their topics.
The whole point of this exercise was for me to make meaningful game development experience every day, and for just a little while here, that will be in the form of me reading these books.

I am working on negotiating the luggage. One piece of good news is that my tiny digital camera takes decently hi-res video, in case the large one does not fit in the luggagening.
