shame[1]Shame!  I did not work on the game this week.  I was out of town visiting my parents for the weekend, and on my one evening free this week I spent it screwing around with my new computer rather than working on the game.

If I don’t improve my focus, I’m going to come up short at the end, in the testing and polish phase that makes all the difference on whether a game is enjoyable to play or just a slog, so I need to get back on track.  I still have some configuration to do on the new machine (details in an upcoming post) but beyond that I am not going to play any more games on it until I’ve got at least a rough cut of the first three scenes done.  That should force me to spend the next couple of weeks making progress rather than playing Jade Empire and Portal.
