I’ve still got so many overlays I want to add last minute, since I just started on my third episode, though I doubt they will be approved in time, so my life is just stress right now :sob:

I can agree with u there, I have tons of backgrounds and overlays yet to be approved :tired_face:

Then I’m kinda stuffed if they all get rejected/not approved in time :sweat_smile:

If they don’t approve in time/get rejected then I won’t be able to enter my story since the 3 chapters won’t be done :tired_face:

Same, I am trying to make it as good as possible but the deadline makes me doubt every so often. I think I will be up until 5.59am when the deadline finsihes if I make good progress from now till then. Either way, I feel proud for getting to the third episode I have never done so much coding since I started.

Yeah, I started the night the contest was announced. But that means I did basically sh*t all planning and ran with what I had in my head.

Yep :tired_face: I’ve spent too long adding advanced directing and making complex/busy edits (:

I can relate. Recently I didn’t sleep at all because I was coding, and it was a school night :sob: but every time I think of dropping out to give myself time to rest, I just think of how devastated I would be if I did since I’ve invested so much in this

I am definitely not going to stay up and not get any sleep. I prefer to get up really early since nobody wants to get out of bed until 10am in lockdown in my house. So I get to blast music and code without my sister insulting me every five minutes. It is bliss. :pleading_face:

I’m the same, I’ve been completing this entry since the night it was announced…

My parents have started getting angry with the amount of stress I’m causing myself and the fact that I’ve shut myself in my bedroom for so many hours a day ever since the announcement and I’ve hardly focused on anything but my entry so I’m determined to get it published. If I don’t manage to publish, I think I will either blame myself for being ‘not good enough’, ‘not quick enough’ or I’ll start over working on my other stories and school work just to take my mind off of not hitting my goal of finally publishing a story for once :tired_face:

I can’t wait until approvals are through and I can see the publish button avaliable if I wanted to. :smirk:

Same, I will just tell my English teacher that I have been working on a whole a*s story and that makes up for never being active in doing the work. It’s hard don’t judge.

Oh no! I’ve just realised that I haven’t uploaded the backgrounds I was supposed to so I’m going to have to use the Episode ones since they won’t get approved in time (the scene is important to the plot so I can’t just cut it either) :pleading_face::tired_face:

You can still upload them and use the Episode ones as a backup plan :slight_smile:

Good, because that is what I’m going to do, too. I still keep uploading my backgrounds and overlays and if things won’t work out… well, consider me doomed! :joy: :tipping_hand_woman:

Thisss! I’m always in my room now, and whenever I’m not coding I’m watching anime to get directing ideas and also to relax and give myself a break.

Same! I’ve got such a destructive mind, that every time something bad happens, I always blame it on myself. A few days ago, my little brother kicked my laptop, and it had to be fixed so I couldn’t code, and I had a mental breakdown where I was so tempted to drop out :weary: but I thought of how if I dropped out I would have an even bigger mental breakdown :sob:
