I Have a Big Announcement:

I now have a contract job for a game studio! I'll be a designer as per usual, but it's great pay! I'll be coding mostly just the UI in Unity, but hey it's good!

[codingcorgi]

I am not dead just severely busy! Days 74-109. I have so much to talk about this time!

So at work (Can't show that due to NDA) I've been bug chasing, and ultimately having to restructure many classes and methods to make one function work as intended.

Then for my C# final I'm still working on my .Net Maui project I finished the journals implementation, and added the event reporting function. I added the events to the journal entry for the day. If there are no entries yet it makes one. I am going to be using the library of microcharts that were used in xamarin (before Xamarin got depreciated into .Net Maui) now it can be used for .Net Maui. I'll be capturing data gathered in the journals to display on graphs to track progress in sleep disorders. At a later time I'll be getting it set up to grab information from sleep tracking apps on mobile.

In C++ my final is to make a game. I am making an adventure game where you can explore a village. It has lore, Easter eggs, and fun imagery (it's a console game unfortunately can't do Unreal). I have to change the code a bit but it has been fun to code!

I might have a contract role coming up for another game studio, so that's exciting.

My plans for the next few days is to get some functionality on the statistics tab in my Maui app, and get my C++ project more put together. At work I'm waiting on the senior dev to plan out how to fix the massive problem we have.

Day 73 of coding everyday for a year! Today was a good day!

Today I added the "Add Journal" page to my sleep journal app. I added in specific things for narcolepsy as well. The formatting is off and I apologize. I also battled a lot of errors while coding today and had to ask dear husband to save me 😭😂.

Tomorrow I'll be adding the view journals function. Later I'll be adding event logging, and looking at weekly, biweekly, monthly, and yearly sleep statistics for a health provider to view. (Do note that I'm using dummy data for my examples, it's not actually what has happened)

Days 63-72 it's been a lot!

The last few days I made a small adventure game in C++, did my C++ midterm, and wrestled with my C# homework program (Cengage is awful). The homework program used GitHub code spaces and mine is severely glitched and I can't turn in my code :/ so there's that. Just waiting on Cengage to fix it. Anyways I started on my C# final project called "Cat Nap Sleep Journal" it's an app that helps those with sleep disorders track their health for doctors to view. It's dedicated to my husband who has narcolepsy.

The next few days I'll be working on adding the pages for the buttons to go to, and adding the statistics which will be a beast I won't lie lol.

Days 50-62 of coding everyday for a year! I'm not dead!

I have worked on C# and C++ so much in the last days of development. I haven't posted because I've been so busy with school. I'm on the president's honor roll so I'm working hard to maintain that. I have been working on setting up my .Net Maui application that I'll be using as my C# project final. I'm also going to be doing my C++ midterm this coming week.

I'll be working on getting my project started. Studying for my midterm, and learning as I go.

All I can say is Chobits haha

Days 47-50 of coding everyday for a year... It's been stressful

So I worked on with the image on top a game in Unity. I made a reverse murder mystery visual novel for Brackeys game jam. The bottom was me getting a feel for C++ still. Tbh I'm still kind of lost with it, but I'm trying. (it's just so different from C# in some ways). I'm also doing a small coding challenge every morning after I've had my coffee with C# since that's the language I'm going to base most of my career off of (I can do Java/Kotlin, and C++ but C# is special)

Here's a link to the game...

The next few days I'll be working on more C++, and my .Net Maui project. I also might be practicing some coding interview questions/tests since the summer is coming up soon (I did make an impressive fizzbuzz with a twist)

[codingcorgi]

Day 42-46 another good chunk of time!

I have made a dialogue system for our game jam game, and designed a lot of the game overall. We are using Pixel Engine For Unity by Dragon Lens Studios as an asset for the game. I've worked on many systems for Pixel Engine because I work for DLS.

Our game will be about going to hell and learning the reason why you are there, because you killed someone. Is it manslaughter, or was it murder? You have to find out on Hell's favorite game show!

The next few days I'll be getting the game completed and doing more HTML/CSS and C++ homework.

Days 34-42 of coding everyday for a year and man has it been busy 😮‍💨

First of all I've been working very hard in my C# class and I have been impressing my teacher as per usual. Then C++ has been going well learning the syntax of C++ has been a journey, because it's very different from what I'm used to with C#. Then I have been coding more of the Unity game my studio has been working on adding a difficulty system, and a main menu settings page. The UI is much to be desired, but I'm still learning.

The next few days I'll be working on more C# homework, practicing C++, and working on json files for the game to create viewers for the chat.

Days 30-31-32-33 I know 4 days but I've had a busy 4 days 😮‍💨 of coding everyday for a year.

I FINALLY added my chat system I've been working on for days. Also got some characters made to talk on chat. Also got the game to be on the other side of the chat UI. New levels were added.

Tonight-Sunday I will be adding menus and functionality for the back buttons.

Dive into the first chapter of our year-long coding adventure! Mony Dragon and Stormi (Niki Miller) from Dragon Lens Studios have embarked on a challenge to develop every single day of 2024, and we're excited to share our progress with you.

This January, we've made significant strides on 🐾 Puppy Tasks, a .NET MAUI app designed to streamline your daily tasks with a touch of fun, and 🎮 We're Live, a streamer simulator game created during the Global Game Jam that puts you in the shoes of a Twitch streamer navigating the highs and lows of live streaming.

👀 Watch our journey, the challenges we faced, the victories we celebrated, and what's next for us. This dev log is just the beginning!

Days 28-29 of coding everyday for a year, and I completed my entry for the global game jam!

I worked on a lot. I worked on UI and hooking up the UI. I worked on scripting things like chat which sadly didn't make it into the final product, but we will post the updated version of the game soon AND might even make a very polished version for Steam.

Tomorrow I'll be doing a lot such as adding the chat to the game fully, and setting up the scoring system. Yes there will be a global scoreboard.

Here's a link to my project!

Day 25-26 of Coding everyday for a year Global Game Jam flavor

I worked on a lot 😮‍💨 I added more UI for main menu, and settings. I found some assets for settings to show controls. Then I made the scripts to handle the chat functionality. As you can see Todd likes eggs, and that's my test message. My husband is still hard at work at the FPS part of the game, and our teammates are handling scoring systems, and AI chat randomizer.

Tonight/Tomorrow I'll be adding more chat functionality, adding functionality to the menus, and finally button functionality.
