To all those game programmers who have had deadlines to finish games: In the last 72 hours before the game has to be done, you are probably spending this time debugging. What does your diet consist of in these last stress-filled frustrating hours of no sleep? I don''t work for a company, but I did set a deadline for myself to finish my game, and during this debugging time I found myself eating/drinking: 1)Pizza 2)Burgers and Fries 3)Peanuts 4)Soda 5)Chocolate milk when I needed energy but was sick of soda (I hate coffee) So, once again, What is your debugging diet????

Ice cream, in LARGE quantities.
Coffee, if I''m at home and have the opportunity to brush my teeth when I feel like it.
Tea, in 1 litre increments.


Give me one more medicated peaceful moment.
