Okay, so today I messed around with “mania 31”. Let me tell you, it was a bit of a ride.

First, I started by just trying to get the darn thing to run. I downloaded all the files, checked the dependencies, you know, the usual stuff. It took a little while to figure out which file was the main one, but I got there eventually.
Getting Started and Troubles
- Download: Got all the files from wherever they were hosted.
- Dependencies: Made sure I had all the extra bits and bobs it needed.
- Finding the start: Poked around until I found the main file to launch.
Then, I hit my first snag. There was this weird error message that kept popping up. Something about a missing library. So, I went on a hunt, googling like crazy, trying to find a solution. Turns out, I needed to install some extra package. I did that, and boom, the error was gone!
Debugging Fun
I thought I was in the clear, but noooo. The thing crashed again. This time, it was a different error. More cryptic. It took me a good hour of reading through forums and trying different things before I finally figured out what was going on. It was some obscure setting that needed to be tweaked. Classic.
Finally Making Progress
After all that troubleshooting, I finally got it working! I started playing around with the different features, experimenting with the settings, and generally just seeing what it could do. It was actually pretty cool once I got past all the initial hurdles.
I spent the rest of the day just exploring and having fun with it. I even managed to create a few neat things. It definitely has a learning curve, but once you get the hang of it, it’s pretty powerful.

So yeah, that was my day with “mania 31”. A bit frustrating at times, but ultimately rewarding. That is all I want to record about my pratice today.
