I'm in. Got too many ideas! Most are bad. about 2016 HOT 2 OPEN

1/11/16

Yay, nanogenmo is on. I really enjoyed making it last year, so I'm enthusiastic for this year. I've got exams preparation, exams and my school camp during November, so it'll be a struggle juggling my time. I've decided to go with, what I think, will be a more intelligent/creative approach than just brute forcing an entry. Last year I tried to perfectly simulate an environment, and in building a big engine, the result actually ended up being somewhat boring.

You've seen my ideas, so I'm trying to do some as quickly as and as creatively as I can.

Today I simulated the market idea. The haxe code generates 15 market people who all have items they sell and buy. These items have worth, and that worth effects the characters money as they make transactions. I'm thinking it's like a record that a king or something would keep in ancient times keeping track of all people's sales.

I like the idea of expanding a sentence with definitions, so I might do that now.

blergh. Didn't do so well this time around. I tried! But now I am tired and need sleep. I used haxe and just went with the market idea. https://github.com/5Mixer/NaNoGenMo16. Output is not currently compiled, but can be ran in browser. http://dandoes.tech/market

did some cool stuff with haxe.

postmortem

every nanogenmo i get super focused on code and at the end of the month i look at my output and see oh shit. but hey at least my code got restructured a lot :D
