We are working on a game
that takes place at night. And I'm told there's this thing you should
do, when you work on a game, which is to bake things (which reminds me: my oven light is dead...). Not all the
things... just certain things. Like lights. And not all the lights,
just the ones you want to crystallize into your scene.
From my limited understanding this
means: take your raw light (in our case: the runny yolk of
moonlight), whip it up with melted butter, and honey—because don't
all these things remind you of light? delicious light.
Who bakes the lights? Me. In other words, I'm in the middle of the end of production, and baking lights can take
hours I'm told. Just like baking in the real world, and what is all this designed to remind me of? Pastries. So... while I let
Unity bake my lights, I'll take a walk to the the bakery, and buy
some streusle—or more likely, I'll walk to the fridge... or even
more likely, I'll think of eating, and keep working, which is why I
clearly need the language of this thing I'm working on to remind me
of my actual needs.
