When we were asked to give 3d effect to our 2d game, our first reaction was "impossible". But then we began exploring options and found that using adobe photoshop, you can give perspective to images, adding depth to them. Once we got the images, we integrated them in our code and found that it didn't help matters much. So, we made the wheel zoom up and the effect was palpably three dimensional. But then our woes began, the ball won't stop at the desired location, the result won't hold, the result on zoom wheel won't hold. We kept on figuring out issues, fixing them till it was 7:30 when we all went for drinks. But we do believe that by Monday, it should be done.
There are a lot of things on my plate and I have to take care of them by this weekend. Let us see how many of them get ticked off from the list :-)
Have been seriously considering cultivating a hobby but which one would suit me is the million dollar question. As of now, I consider reading books as my hobby but that does not give that much satisfaction to me now so I know it is time to move on to newer things. Will have to devote some time to that.

it has been time
Off late, I have been thinking a lot, reminiscing past events and evaluating the course my life has taken over the past 2 years or so. Can't say i am terribly disappointed but can't say that i am incredibly satisfied. I think this feeling will last for some time.
The work front has been incredibly hectic these past 2 months. We started with the challenge of creating new games for a niche and for the next month or so, we created 9 games, all of them luck based and still fun to play. Then we got another client and had to create a new game for him in 3 days. That was very very difficult. I had to do a night out after a long long time but the work was completed on time with ok kind of quality. I say ok because i belong to the old school where testing should take more time than coding :-)
Diwali was a damp squib this year owing to the work pressures but in any case my in laws had come to visit us so it was not an absolute failure. That's how things stand in my life, ok kind of quality but leaving the scope for improvement.
On the brighter note, here is Kush singing Que Sera Sera
