Weird things Unity Developers Eat at 2AM ?

OK, so this is just a fun post…

it’s 2AM and your low on food, but your working late on your Unity Project, and you don’t want to make run to 7/11 or some 24/7 spot for late night/am munchies. What’s the weirdest thing you’ve eaten to keep yourself awake and working…

ME… it’s 2AM now as I write this, and I wanted some Coffee and Peanut Butter Jelly Sandwich, but I realized my Last Pieces of Bread are couple days old and rotten with mold lol! BUT I have an extra cold pizza slice left over, so I slap some Peanut Butter and Jelly on my Cold Pizza, Make my Coffee head back to work on my Unity Project! HMM HMM!! LOL! :mrgreen:

Whats your midnight game dev munchies story?

Whatever is in the fridge/cupboard, because at 2am, it’s not easy just to go to the store and get something.
If I know it’s going to be a late night, I’ll usually stock up at the take-away.

glass of water, boring i know.

You can still order pizza until 3am

Depends where you live, really. Anyway I eat dinner late so I don’t feel hungry at 2am.

Last night for me.
Beer, wine and granola…

I feel like hell.

The souls of the living.

It’s either going to actually be my dinner, or breakfast or something random. Occasionally I’ll actually watch my somewhat svelte hippo figure and merely drink some water.

:slight_smile: Oh boy!

what a people…

Not a Unity project, but I drank 18 cups of coffee one night and stayed up for 36 hours working on a project.

Being polish, my fridge is well stocked with assorted cold cuts and sausages from local polish deli. Slap it on a bun and good to go.

Usually I have pots of “pho” “khao poon” in my fridge. Put some noodles in them and you got yourself a nice asian meal.

Usually I have two dinners so I’m not hungry till after 3am. I’m rarely low on food but if I am I go with sweet coffee and dipping bread in it. xD

I’ve never stayed up seriously developing anything at 2 am unless I was forced into it by circumstances as a system administrator; except once as a developer. I spent 36 hours straight fixing a years old bug obfuscated by a broken compiler and insecure developers only to be blasted for asking permission to go home early the day I fixed the bug. It really hurts your creativity though so it’s best avoided unless you are sleeping all day or something weird. Still not as productive but you are at least getting sleep.

That said, I’d wouldn’t eat on late nights and entire weekends shoot to do ‘important sys admin work cause we can’t do it during business hours’ but back then as I still smoked, more cigarettes than normal and more caffeinated soda or Red Bull than normal because it’s going to be a drag walking home after the trams stop running.

some good fuckin cereals :>

Black tea, 3 teaspoons of sugar, and a cigarette.

Smoking will kill you and your loved ones.

pretzels and skittles

Carrots.

Whoa that’s gota hurt! LOL!

Thats Nuts! You didn’t Eat???
