Sleep to the rescue

While I was working on my game this morning, I had an eyeache. It got so bad I had to stop what I was doing, run to the bathroom, and vomit out all I had eaten since when I woke up at 10 p.m. This was at about 6 a.m. About an hour later, I had to quit. It seems like the only thing that makes my eyeaches go away is sleep. So I tried to take a little nap. It took about an hour to go to sleep because I wasn't really all that tired yet. Sure enough, when I woke up, I felt better.

 

Continuing work on my game, I discovered that I was using 4 variables I didn't really need. I was looking for a way to make the homing missile's movement less "choppy." Then I remembered I didn't need to use MissileY+x and MissileX+x and instead moved those into PlayerX+x and PlayerY+x, which was already set to ds 5 for some reason. Since missiles only move after an HMOVE command, and I had one in my sprite fine-tuning code, I just used that.

 

Now I am waiting for my Safeway delivery. After it comes, I'm going to sleep because I'm really tired now. It's supposed to come "between 12-4 .p.m" and it's almost 2 p.m.
