Had a thought for a great project to learn a programming language with- Pacman, but the ghosts can go through walls. Bonus points if they have line of sight but can't see through the walls, just pass through them. They'd have a lower chance of going through a wall than in any other direction to keep it somewhat fair, but not so low a chance that it's infrequent. We're learning Python and as far as we can tell, this should work! Need to figure out how CLI games display though, have never made anything dynamic for the terminal before. Just static one-off scripts in BASH. We've been needing a project to fuel us learning and this should do nicely!

Tired today. Spent time with a friend and while we love being around people, it's draining. Worth it but we need a nap now. Other peeps have been pretty quiet today. Kaz was out for a bit earlier but otherwise we've been frontrunning all day. We wish we felt safer taking a break and letting someone else here take the reins but we're paranoid that things will go wrong and we'll have to fix it. It's silly because the others expect us to fix our own mistakes and we expect them to fix theirs but it's still a worry of ours.
