        <![CDATA[<p>So, guys. The game is not gonna be in flash anymore. It's gonna be in <a href="http://www.xna.com/">XNA</a>. Balzaque, from LTIA (Laboratório de Tecnologia da Informação Aplicada), UNESP, is the guy behind the programming. He's reusing the engine of Arthur's game, <a href="http://www.chako-project.com/">Chako</a>. I don't know yet if it will be possible to have a downloadable version of the game. We're leaving this detail for later. :(</p>

<p>Also, I scheduled my presentation: it's gonna be on Thursday, December 3, 9:30 PM, at room 51, UNESP, Bauru, São Paulo, Brazil. BE THERE! LOL</p>

<p>And last, but not least: I FINISHED MY REPORT!!! This means that until december 3 I can totally dedicate myself just for the game! YEY! \o/</p>

<p class="portuguese">Então, galera. O jogo não será mais em flash e, sim, em <a href="http://www.xna.com/">XNA</a>. Quem está programando é o Balzaque, do LTIA (Laboratório de Tecnologia da Informação Aplicada), UNESP. A engine está sendo reaproveitada do jogo do Thur, <a href="http://www.chako-project.com/">Chako</a>. Ainda não sei se vai dar pra disponibilizar o jogo pra download. Isso é um detalhe que deixaremos pra depois. :(</p>

<p class="portuguese">Ah, eu também marquei minha apresentação: será quinta-feira, 3 de dezembro, às 21:30h, sala 51, UNESP, Bauru-SP, Brasil. ESTEJA LÁ! :D</p>

<p class="portuguese">Ah, e por último, mas não menos importante: EU TERMINEI MEU RELATÓRIO!!! Isso significa que até o dia 3 (sim, estou considerando até a última hora) eu poderei me dedicar inteiramente só ao jogo! YEY \o/</p>

        <![CDATA[<p>I'm right now writing some rules for my game (in Google Wave! *cough*). You know, <em>what happens if you grab some of that feisty red peppers</em>? Do you earn some points or ask desesperatly for water? Won who answered first option. Who cares if the pepper is spicy? The world is ending! :)</p>

<p>I picked a name for the game. It's still a secret. :)</p>

<p>I also started to write the project's report. Kinda. The diagramation is quite good and it has a lot of <em>lorem ipsum</em> which needs to be replaced with real text, as soon as I know what to write about. :D</p>

<p>I'm still not believing I'm here with such good news. Until yesterday evening the things for me was more apocalyptical than the game itself. I was in danger since I was simply not finding anyone to program my game! I was so depressed!!! Then Alexandre Nacari and Balzaque came and saved my life. They deserve one million Reais in gold bars which worth more than money! :D</p>

<p>For now, I can tell you the things are going very well.</p>

<h4>What matters now is:</h4>

<ul>
<li>My work is almost done!</li>
<li>I found a programmer!</li>
<li>The game now has a proper name! It will be revealed in the right time.</li>
<li>We have now 1 month to finish all this stuff.</li>
<li>Less is more!</li>
<li>The world is going to end, anyway (in my game, at least)</li>
<li>One million Reais in gold bars worth more than money</li>
</ul>
<p></p>
<p class="portuguese">Estou neste momento escrevendo algumas regras para o meu jogo (no Google Wave! *cof cof*). Tipo assim, o que acontece quando eu pego uma daquelas pimentas vermelhas delicinhas? Você ganha pontos ou clama desesperadamente por água? Ganhou quem respondeu a primeira alternativa. E daí que a pimenta é ardida, o mundo vai acabar! :)</p>

<p class="portuguese">Escolhi um nome para o jogo, lalala! Mas ainda é segredo. :)</p>

<p class="portuguese">Também comecei a escrever o relatório. Hm, parte dele. A diagramação tá ficando um chuchu e tem um monte de lorem ipsum, que precisa ser substituído por textos reais, assim que eu achar sobre o que escrever :D</p>

<p class="portuguese">Eu ainda não acredito que estou aqui com todas essas boas notícias, sério. Até ontem de tardezinha as coisas pro meu lado estavam mais apocalípticas do que o jogo em si. Eu tava a perigo, já que eu simplesmente não tava achando ninguém pra programar meu jogo! Eu tava tão deprimida!!! Aí o Alexandre Nacari e o Balzaque apareceram e salvaram a minha vida. Eles merecem um milhão de Reais em barras de ouro que valem mais do que dinheiro! :D</p>

<p class="portuguese">Até agora, posso lhes dizer que as coisas estão indo muito bem.</p>

<h4 class="portuguese">O que importa agora é que:</h4>

<ul>
<li class="portuguese">Meu trabalho está quase pronto!</li>
<li class="portuguese">Eu encontrei um programador!</li>
<li class="portuguese">O jogo agora tem um nome! Será revelado no tempo certo.</li>
<li class="portuguese">Agora temos 1 mês pra terminar essa bagaça.</li>
<li class="portuguese">Menos é mais!</li>
<li class="portuguese">O mundo vai acabar, mesmo (pelo menos no meu jogo)</li>
<li class="portuguese">Um milhão de Reais em barras de ouro valem mais do que dinheiro</li>

        <![CDATA[<p>December 21, 2012. We're in the middle of the National Championship of <em>lucha libre</em>. First round of the first fight in <em>El Luchador</em>'s career, and he's scared as hell. Being <em>luchador</em> was always his dream, but his deepest fear is... to take a beating. The fight is against the actual champion, the feared (and unbeaten) <em>Infierno Púrpura</em>. The arena is full, there's no space for any more people, the bets are in. It's the fight of the year, of the century, of the millenium! And possibly the last one, since the Maya calendar says the world ends today!</p>

<p>The battle begins!!! Still in the early seconds, <em>El Luchador</em> is taken by a stroke right in the face, and everything gets dark...</p>]]>
        <![CDATA[<p><em>El Luchador</em> wakes up. His vision gone blur, everything is slowly taking form... He realises he's still in the arena, but it's totally empty. The light is weak, like it's illuminated by candles. And then <em>El Luchador</em> finds out he's not alone. There's a man standing in front of him, looking straight at him.</p>

<p>The old man introduces himself like a true integrant of the Maya civilization. He brings with him an apocalyptical message: December 21, 2012, was, in fact, the last day of the Earth. But there was a way to change the planet of its iminent destruction, and guess who's The Chosen One? <em>El Luchador</em> would have to prove to the old Maya that nothing could scare him! To prove that, he'll must pass through a courage test: he must be put into a challenge where he'll fight his most terrible fears: scare of heights, of dead people, scare of piñatas (yeah, you read right :D), of taking a beating and his brand new fear: <em>Infierno Púrpura</em>. If he beats it safely and without a scratch, then he's able to enter a bigger adventure: to save the world!</p>

<p>But, wait... <em>El Luchador</em> thought of saying NO to the old man. After all, if the world is going to an end, his fears are going too, because he (and everything else) will die! But he measured the pros and cons of this &#8220;investment&#8221; and concluded that it will be more lucrative if he says YES, because if he makes it, he could have all the glory, the money and the women (?), thousands of fans, everything he wants! He could be turned into a living legend! So, he just accepted!!!</p>

<p>Then, the Maya man said that he would introduce <em>El Luchador</em> into a deep sleep, and this first test would be inside his head. Ie, he would starts the journey inside a dream (or nightmare). And then, everything gets dark, again...</p>

<p class="portuguese">Dia 21 de dezembro de 2012. Estamos no meio de um campeonato nacional de <em>lucha libre</em>. Primeiro round da primeira luta da carreira de <em>El Luchador</em>, e ele está apavoradíssimo. Ser <em>luchador</em> sempre foi seu sonho, mas seu maior medo é... apanhar. A luta é contra ninguém menos que o atual campeão da temporada, o temido (e invicto) <em>Infierno Púrpura</em>. Arena lotada, gente saindo pelo ladrão, apostas a todo vapor. É a luta do ano, do século, do milênio! E talvez a última pois, de acordo com o calendário dos Maias, o mundo acaba hoje!</p>

<p class="portuguese">Começa a luta!!! Logo nos primeiros segundos <em>El Luchador</em> toma uma braçada bem no meio da fuça, e tudo fica escuro...</p>

<p class="portuguese"><em>El Luchador</em> acorda. Visão meio embaçada, tudo vai ficando nítido aos poucos... Ele percebe que ainda está na arena, mas ela está completamente vazia.  A iluminação está fraca, como se o lugar fosse iluminado por velas. Eis que <em>El Luchador</em> se toca que não está sozinho. Há um homem em pé, parado à sua frente, olhando para ele.</p>

<p class="portuguese">O homem, velho, se apresenta como sendo um legítimo integrante da civilização Maia. E ele traz consigo a mensagem apocalíptica: aquele 21 de dezembro de 2012 era, de fato, o último dia de existência da Terra. Mas havia um jeito de mudar a história e, adivinhe, <em>El Luchador</em> era O escolhido para a tarefa de salvar o planeta da iminente destruição. Porém, antes ele ele tinha que provar ao velho Maia que não tem medo de nada!  E para isso teria que passar num teste de coragem: seria posto a um desafio em que enfrentaria seus medos mais terríveis: medo de altura, medo dos mortos, medo de piñatas (sim, você leu certo :D) medo de apanhar e seu mais novo medo: <em>Infierno Púrpura</em>. Se conseguir passar por esse desafio são, salvo e sem um arranhão, era digno de uma aventura muito maior: a de salvar o mundo!</p>

<p class="portuguese"><em>El Luchador</em> a princípio pensou em dizer NÃO ao velho Maia. Se o mundo ia acabar mesmo, seus medos também acabariam, pois ele (e tudo mais) morreria. Mas ele ponderou os prós e os contras dessa &#8220;empreitada&#8221; e concluiu que, se conseguisse o feito de salvar a Terra, alcançaria a glória absoluta, ficaria rico, teria todas as mulheres (?) que quisesse, ganharia uma legião de fãs, seria ma lenda-viva. Então ele topou!!!</p>

<p class="portuguese">O Maia então disse que o induziria a um sono profundo, e que essa primeira prova seria dentro de sua cabeça. Ou seja, ele iria se aventurar dentro de um sonho (ou pesadelo). Então tudo escureceu, novamente...</p>]]>

<p>I've recently discovered that my deadline looks more like DEAD than LINE. I have 8-10 weeks to deliver my project and, yes, I'm desperate.</p>

<p>Since April, the last time I posted here, I've done nothing. At all. But, with my time almost over, I've decided to do something, you know? Starting with this layout. Do you like it? I do. Still not the final version, but slowly we get there. <strike>(Oh, it's not done yet, as you can see :P)</strike> It's done! :D</p>

<p>I'll not promise daily updates, but in the nexts 8-10 weeks you'll see a lot more stuff here.</p>

<p class="portuguese">ENTÃO! :D</p>

<p class="portuguese">Descobri recentemente que a minha deadline está mais para DEAD do que LINE. Eu tenho 8-10 semanas pra entregar meu TCC e, sim, estou desesperada.</p>

<p class="portuguese">Desde abril, a última vez que postei aqui, eu não fia mais nada. Mas, com meu tempo quase no fim, decidi me mexer, né? Começando com esse layout. Gostou? Eu gostei. Ainda não é a versão final, mas devagar a gente chega lá. <strike>(Ah, não tá pronto ainda, como você pode notar :P)</strike> Tá pronto! :D</p>

<p class="portuguese">Não prometo atualizações diárias, mas nas próximas 8-10 semanas vocês verão muito mais coisas aqui.</p>]]>

        <![CDATA[<p>Starting the blog. As you can see, it doesn't have any style, and the title is totally provisory. It's almost everything undefined, but the deadline. I have till the end of this year to deliver my project – it seems far, but I picked a hard way to graduate, so, I'm starting to desperate (instead of starting to do something concrete ¬¬).</p>

<h4>Presenting the hard way</h4>
<p>So, I decided to do a game as final project on college. In flash. And pixel art. Yeah, it's madness, I know (you'll see). But I spent this 4 years doing average works, so, why don't finish my college doing something which can make me really proud (and others jealous :D)?</p>

<h4>Homework</h4>
<p>Talk to my teacher, write a sinopsis for the game, pick a name. Create a logo, buy a domain. Turn this thing into serious deal.</p>

<p>On future posts I'll bring here some stuff I already made – sketches, little animations, ideas, etc.</p>

<p>See you on the next level! o/</p>]]>
