I had a good night\u2019s sleep, got some coding in, and have decided on a plan of attack that should result in a completed game. But I have less than 7 hours left. It\u2019s going to be tight.<\/p>\n

First, I moved the laptop from the living room to my office. I had to clear a place for it on my desk, which meant moving papers and books to the coffee table in the living room, but what\u2019s the point of having a dedicated work space if I don\u2019t use it? It will be a lot easier to focus just by knowing I\u2019m in a place to do just that.<\/p>\n

Second, I showered. It\u2019s almost subconscious, but knowing in the back of my mind that I hadn\u2019t done so today is distracting. <\/p>\n

Third, I had lunch: <\/p>\n

\"Peanut<\/a><\/p>\n

That\u2019s an awesome-tastic peanut butter and Nutella sandwich that I washed down with apple juice. Note the shout out to all LDers, everywhere, especially those who are essentially making an entire game in the last 7 hours of the competition. This sandwich was for you.<\/p>\n

So, I\u2019m clean, I\u2019m full, and I\u2019m in an environment conducive to hardcore concentration and hacking. <\/p>\n

Now imagine I put on shades when I say, \u201cLet\u2019s do this\u201d in as bad-ass a way as possible. <\/p>\n

Let\u2019s do this.<\/p>\n
