i guess meet me in the middle is doing pretty well
I’m opening Meet Me In The Middle to be used by anyone for the next 2 weeks! It was previously locked down because I didn’t have the money to pay for it, but I’m putting the money I got from my last hackathon into this while the Google Maps Hackathon I submitted it for is undergoing it’s judging. Enjoy!
one of the officers of a honors society at school asked me to make them some sort of hours tracker that lets members of the society to sign up for tutoring slots for the last two periods of a day every day, but since our schedule is really weird, i needed to come up with some weird solution for it
so i used a google apps script to pull the data from the public google calendar on our school’s website that they always update with the current school day and if there’s no school that day, and then format it and put it into a google sheet
not bad for a 2 hour project at midnight if i do say so myselfso…i got an invitation from mit to interview with an alumni
applications: submittedheyoo! worked on adding a blog to my personal site today, complete with a loading bar at the top, sweet animations, and formatting (+ syntax highlighting for code blocks!)taught myself figma animations hehehey y’all :D

16 hours later on the sprig tetris game
this looks really simple but i finally got dynamic grid map generation to work in my new sprig game! i didn’t hardcode any bitmaps or maps, but the program takes a 2d array of values i put in, converts it into a 4d array for the 16x16 bitmaps, and then converts that into the 6 bitmaps that it uses to make the map!!
