Day 4

So the game now has a randomly scrolling building background of which one has shattering windows. the player can now run, jump and throw a brick. the parts of the mob now fall down when they hit obstacles. so one of the mechanics to work on will be to pick up new items to replace the brick. i need to think of what those will be. i also need to decide if it will be like Canabalt and just have the game keep going or go Miami Shark and just end when things get too ridiculous.

i prolly post what i have done so far tomorrow.

Stamper let me pick lunch today. i'm really bad at decision making so we went to Bagels and Burgers. unfortunately you cannot get burgers on bagels. it was fun just chillin with tom, bob, jose, stamper, and rob. jeff hasn't come to eat with us yet. or talk to me. or look at me. i guess i should make the first step but he is fairly intimidating. at lunch we talked about Tom's son possibly being trained by Russians to become a prodigy piano player. we decided hes too old, much like Anakin Skywalker getting judged by the Jedi council. we talked about movies and tv shows. Stamper called me out about watching True Blood since it was on my user page's favorites. after being kinda freaked that he even looked at my user page i decided that i didn't care cause its a good show. i really wish i could be friends with Rob. apparently we have a very different opinion of Battlestar Galatica. i think it can get kinda talky, especially in the last seasons but is balanced out by great action scenes. he is apparently ok with the drawn out drama and shaky cam zoom ins on Giaus Baltar's one face he always makes when someone blames serious shit on him.

in the car ride back i was told a funny story about a strip club. maybe i'll tell you when you're older.

i stayed late today and the guys were watching a Star Trek movie, i forget which one. it had the ridiculous plot of an energy ribbon that makes you think everything is perfect and this dude wants to blow up a star to let himself live in the energy. listening to Jeff describe it is really funny, it makes it seem like his cartoons are just what just comes out of his head. i'm sure he fine tunes it for cartoons but he is really funny on the spot.
i should have said something but its scary trying to be funny around people i think are so funny and creative.
