I close my eyes

Only for a moment and the moment's gone

All my dreams

pass before my eyes
a couriosity

Dust in the wind

Hey Peporonis!
The demented, short-sighted, ferver, that is my work, continues.
I've been writing chapter two (and beyond) in the times that I can't phisically work in Daz. I had a short time when I bought assets from the daz store for the game and that continued past the point when I thought I was done. My head is all over the story.
Can you drive up the wall that which was always in the corner of the cealing?

The Less than a Hundred
There a less than a hundred assets in my spreadsheet that I have yet to make. Sometimes, when I think about it I bite my thumb and dissasociate. There are 358 items sitting in a folder labeled "raw" waiting for me to edit them for the game. Then there is testing and putting code to all of my notes about what I wish the game does.

As the italians say, "Gratsi, Spegeti." 

The Contrast of it all
It occurs to me that some of my renders might only look good on my 1440 vivid monitor. Some videogames that have a lot of dark areas have that neat little slider where you can adjust how dark something is. Whenever I play those sections, I always make it way bright so I could see everything and save on flashlight battery mechanic.

But then I accedently set my monotor to another setting while fucking with the blue filter, I was trying to see if it was giving me a headache, and when I looked at my thumbnailes and oppened up many of the low-light renders that I finished for a section of the game, they barely looked like anything to me.

I do not know how big of a deal this is!
What do you think of these samples of the game? Can you see them?



What will I do if it turns out they are too dark and a significant number of players cannot expirience those sections of the story?

I'll spend energy on that if it isn't a problem.
