[1:44:25][@culdevu][Q: I'm still not sure I understand the reason why you don't store the "actual" position and smoothly scrolling between tiles, and the "animation" position doing the bouncing? The bouncing should only have to be dealt with during render and can be derived from the "actual" position, and so you don't have to store it anywhere. Am I wrong about that?][:camera]
[1:46:57][@davechat][Q: What was the plan for :lighting on the sprites?]
[1:47:53][@saidwho12][Q: Is the variance in :lighting just a side effect of the random sample?]
[1:48:17][@robotchocolatedino][Q: Off-topic but how do you stay motivated on long projects like this? I usually would lose interest much earlier, and am wondering if there are techniques to want to keep working for on the same game for many years[ref

[1:52:00][@saidwho12][Q: How big is [~hero Handmade Hero]?]
[1:53:36][@very_mediocre][Q: Do you ever get burnt out? What does it take for that? Have you noticed a change in your mental stamina as you've gotten older?][:health]
[1:55:54][@fishrock123][Q: How long does a full rebuild take?]
[1:56:50][@pythno][Q: Motivation: I can recommend your chat about the imposter syndrome.[ref
site="Handmade Chat"
page="Imposter Syndrome"
url=https://guide.handmadehero.org/chat/chat012/]It helped me a lot. I used to have way too high expectations of what I can do in a day. I reduced that expectation and set myself smaller goals for each day. Way easier to even start then and I was surprised how quickly I got way more done than I initially wanted to do][:health]
[2:00:17][@xxthebigfoxx][Q: Do you ever experience having no idea on how to approach a specific problem and have that negatively impact how productive you are? Any tip on how to deal with it?]
