It's actually been a huge journey to get here (I'm joking about the number of final versions though) huge shifts in our internal approaches to Unity and the underpinning frameworks have been incredible leaps forward.

So we're now in the end sprint which is SOOOO exciting!

Well it's official today I started wiring everything into the production version of the Fractured Library demo.
Saved neatly in the folder:

Throwing this amazing soundtrack on in the background whilst I work - still my favourite Wes Anderson film - man I need to dust that turntable

What's the best Wes Anderson soundtrack?

First task today for Fractured Library:
Add cupboard to dream like portal stage.

I'm more virtual removalist now that most of the tech design is done LOL

I started the audiobook of Doom Guy by John Romero - one of the first books that really stood out to me about game dev was Masters of Doom so I have a soft spot for Romero and three chapters in it is so good

Just finished tightening up the menu system – clean open/close cycles and buttons that actually trigger command chains. A small step that sets us up for scalable UI without the spaghetti later.

No gaming character scribble today because I've been deep into Bookcase UI building and I'm really pleased with the progress!

In Fractured Library development, today is all about bookcase UI - it's a library, it may be fractured but of course I'm building a bookcase UI for it!

Want your name and made up book title in there? Head to raguthra.com?utm_source=Lee
