I had to leave my apartment a little after six in the morning today due to a major HVAC project, so when I got to Arun's apartment I'm not entirely sure I was awake (although I had had my fair share of caffeine). With the majority of our members embarking on a long journey to Manhattan each morning, I figure they shared my sleepy state.
Nevertheless, armed with Snapples and a pumped up playlist, we got to work on Day 2 of our CAD game!

And we're making progress!
The CAD team.
First we have Kiana (pondering life on the left) coding the GUI for our CAD tutorials. She's mastering the ways of Unity! Her screen's not blank, it's loading, I swear.
And me (Violet) on the right. I'm recording my screen for each step of the first CAD tutorial of the flashlight. Between the two of us I think Kiana and I have made enough flashlights for a flashlight farm.
Today I learned that it's much easier to mess up when you have to record your steps. I think the total number of takes for the first tutorial ended up being 32 (better than we predicted! The initial bets ranged from 28 to 247... )

And, of course, Arun (below left), who is tackling the player controls. It turns out our player is a bit of a troublemaker, and was squatting, flying, defying the laws of physics, and essentially was determined to do everything but walk. Arun is doing some computer magic and hopefully tomorrow our player will decide he likes walking like a normal human.
All in all, JAVAK had another great day, and got a lot accomplished. We're definitely looking forward to Day 3!!
