Just finished recreating the Roll a Ball tutorial on their website, less than a minute ago. Countless videos, poring over code, what open/close curly bracket did I miss that's messing everything up, troubleshoot, troubleshoot, alt tab over and over and over, test, play, learning things, and finally several hours later I produced a minigame in which I roll a white ball around a plain blue box collecting spinning yellow boxes, and there's a basic UI that counts the boxes as you roll over them and then says "You Win!" (white, arial/helvetica for extra snazzy flair) in the center of the screen when you got the last one.

I'm so proud of myself. I don't know if that's meant sarcastically. ... Damnit, where do I get a goat to sacrifice? Freakin' cults, always assuming you have money to buy livestock with.
