Recently was advised to try going off dairy for a week and I had no clue how much my happiness is contingent on eating ice cream and chocolate.

After a lot of time spent this weekend, the system is almost completely functional.
It calcs cap chance (based on LV, HP, Dist, Aware) & has a fail state.
In the future, needs more camera angles and animations. Also missing the part where you compare stats afterward.

Just watched Edward Scissorhands and all I could think about was how I wish he existed in the same universe as the Addams family. They would've taken him in, no questions asked and he would've been accepted for all his eccentricities and sensitivities.

There's certainly an art to making a good time-lapse. You're telling me I dont only have to make a good piece of art but I also have to be mindful of how much I'm moving my screen? Kill me. 😭

Unfortunately I'll no longer be able to go. I got sick at the worst possible time (as is common for me) and I'd prefer not to risk it. Ughhh
