Intro
It's 8th day of my learning journey in JavaScript, Data Structures and algorithms. And for Game design I am creating a 2D level in photoshop for a FPS shooter game and reading a book on game design. And learning Japanese from Zero! and revisiting English lessons from lower-intermediate course level.
Language
Japanese:
I learnt words and phrases like nan, desu, ka, iie, Hai.

Game design
I am reading this book called “The Art of Game Design” by Jesse Schell. Today, I completed a few topics and read about:
Dynamic Game Balancing, The Lens of Balance, Started with new chapter 12 : Game Mechanics support puzzles.
LDD: Started with new assignment, I am creating 2D layout for Counter Strike game. I started with line layouts prototyping on paper,now I trying figure out how can I balance the game elements.
Coding
JavaScript: Worked on project: Animal Attack, created a fish an used draw function and incremental variable to increase its mouth size and body. New content learned today: Function Returns value.
It is very difficulty to understand algorithms and follow along the courses so I have decided to learn JavaScript along C so that I will get used to programming language and then progress towards DSA and C++. So, today I installed compiler and visual code, and ran Hello World in it using C language.
