Starting to record. I planned to do these things today, but then I suddenly remembered this is a diary, not a to-do list, emmmm, so interspersing some personal descriptions should be fine, hmph~ (humming softly)
Things I Planned to Do
- Work on game project. Another day of Codex collaboration. I’ll try to look at the code. Copilot, you’re not my type anymore, hehe. Well, can’t waste it though. I’ve probably spent over 3 hours on it today. I actually unconsciously spend a ton of time on the project every day, even though right now I mostly just give AI a bunch of commands, wait for it to finish, then test, occasionally writing scripts, debugging, and writing copy. Feels a bit off, but I don’t know how to change it…
- Practice on the yoga mat. Damn, didn’t get this done, QAQ. It’s already 11 PM, too lazy to bother.
- Draw for about 1 hour. Keep going, even if it’s super abstract, haha. I’ve discovered a terrifying truth: I only draw to push the project forward. I don’t actually like drawing as much as I like developing games. My enjoyment of drawing isn’t even comparable to designing levels or writing stories… I guess I just want to learn this tool, but is this mindset itself hindering my drawing skills from getting stronger? Sigh.
Things I Might Do
- Download Claude-app, configure my API, and then check out some other AI stuff I’ve seen. Feels like it’ll be exhausting (doing AI, I mean).
- Re-read “The Art of Game Design: A Book of Lenses”
- Stream, make videos? Make a video about how a GPT taught me to make videos, so I started making videos, haha.
- Play meta-games? (This would need to be paired with streaming or at least screen recording, haha.)
- Learn design patterns. Damn, I downloaded that course and haven’t looked at it since.
- Damn, didn’t do a single one, QAQ.
Extra Things I Did
- Spent 3 hours on UI for a front-end design class, so tired. And I still have homework to submit, damn. I feel like this thing’s (Axure) UI isn’t even as good as Godot’s, ugh.
- Updated the script for my sharing website, integrated NVIDIA’s free API, not bad, not bad.

Amiya: Lately, it’s basically all AI development, I mean… Amiya: I’ve also become the person I hate most, watching Helen write save and dialogue systems herself… Amiya: Where did the old me, who could hand-code all this, go QAQ…? Amiya: But if you ask me to quit AI starting today, that’s definitely a no-go (lll￢ω￢) Amiya: Guess it’ll have to be like this for now… Ayami: You better finish me, hmph. I feel like you’re nowhere near finishing me right now… Ayami: Just for my sake, unleash your indie game development power on yourself!
What I Want to Do Tomorrow
- Exercise! Gym or running
- Continue development, start designing and filling in mechanics and gameplay for Act 2
