I got most of this week's ALChoon done yesterday.
Hurray for almost doing something!
-=-=-
I'm about 95% happy with the track, but a further mix&tweak should ensure the song sounds fairly decent. I hope. Maybe.
Honestly, it's not a bad result for a day's worth of choonage, and though the lyrics are more than a little miserable, it'll do for a week's ALChoon!!!
Especially after the past few days.
It's a miracle I've managed anything at all, to be honest.
So, that'll get done, and then it's on to the week's AGameAWeek.
I'm going to abandon the unstarted "something about Plastering" idea. That's not going anywhere.
Not really sure what sort of game I'm going to be making.
It might end up being one of those "Type things until a game emerges" things.
Who knows, it may even end up being Plastering related!
[Dave is slumped on the couch, surrounded by crumpled papers. Green enters, carrying his pet rock.]
Green: Dave, what's wrong? You look like you've been debugging hospital computers again.
Dave: Worse, Greenie. My Zen Office promotion is a total flop!
Green: You mean people aren't interested in virtual sticky notes and imaginary printer repairs?
Dave: I even offered 3% off vouchers on Myspace!
Green: Well, I can't imagine what else you could try.
Dave: It's failed, hasn't it.
Green: Well, it's not exactly been an overnight success. That doesn't mean it's failed completely, though.
Dave: All hope is lost, Greenie. There's just no way it's ever going to take off, now.
[Scene Two]
Int. Dave's apartment - Afternoon
[Dave is pacing, while Mr. Duckello sits on the table]
Dave: Mr. Duckello, what am I doing wrong? Why doesn't anyone want to experience the joy of zen office repair?
Green: Would you not prefer a human's opinion?
Dave: Mr. Duckello is my spiritual guide in all things zen and office-related!
Green: Given how well it's gone so far, maybe it's time to stop listening to the duck.
Dave: Greenie, you're a genius! A Coke-powered Zen Office kiosk!
Green: What? That's not what I-
Dave: It's perfect! We'll set it up in the garden, right next to my chakra-aligning rocks!
Green: [defeated] Oh no...
[Scene Three]
Ext. Dave's garden - Evening
[Dave is standing next to a contraption made of computer parts, empty Coke cans, and fairy lights. Green looks on in horror.]
Dave: Behold, Greenie! The Coke-Powered Zen Office Experience Kiosk!
Green: This doesn't look very safe.
Dave: Nonsense! It's perfectly safe. Watch!
[Dave flips a switch. The contraption buzzes, fizzes, and then explodes in a shower of sparks and sticky soda.]
Green: Well, it didn't blow up, so that's something.
Dave: [covered in soda and looking dejected] I don't understand, Greenie. Why doesn't anyone want to experience the zen of virtual office repair?
Green: Maybe because most people prefer their office equipment to be, you know, real? And/or not covered in cola.
Dave: Not covered in coke..? Could we make giant covers for all the computers? People can prod the keys through plastic sheets, right?
Green: Dave, no-
Dave: Yes! We'll create physical Zen Office supplies! Keyboard covers, monitor wraps, cling film for mouses.
Green: [sighs] Goodnight, Dave.
[As Dave excitedly plans his new "tangible" Zen Office supplies, Green picks up his pet rock and walks away, muttering about the impending office supply apocalypse.]
