Developments


Yesterday, I made this!
SD3_016

Taking sprites, sounds and music from Invisible Munky 2, I quickly cobbled together a SpikeDislike2 theme, and remarkably it looks pretty darn good!

I also attempted a candybar styled theme, but that didn't turn out as well, and all the striped candy bars were making it hard to tell what on earth was going on!

Lesson Learned!

On top of that, I had to add "collectables" into the engine, for Munky's bananas. They weren't too hard to add, as I made use of the "Background Parallax Objects" functionality.
It's resulted in only one object onscreen at a time, but it does at least work properly, and gives you something extra to aim for.

That's roughly 10 themes in the game, now. I need to start thinking about other elements to add.. hmm...

Daily Doodle : Beware the Swamp Monster



Platdude encounters a viscous looking creature, whilst exploring the swamplands.
ARRGH!

Mailbag

Today's mail comes from TimmyTot666, who wonders...

How many shoes?

TimmyTot666



Short, sweet, and to the point!
Although quite what the point is, I'm not entirely certain.
Does he mean, "How many pairs of shoes do I own?", or "How many shoes do you regularly wear on each foot?", "How many shoes does Platdude own?", or perhaps "How many times have you tried to shoo away an evil creature?"..!!?!
I'm not sure.

I wear one shoe on each foot, of which I have two, and currently own 4 pairs of "shoes".
One cheap-tacky pair of Trainers/Sneakers, One nice pair of "Shoe" shoes, A dark blue pair of Canvas shoes, and the obligatory pair of Xmas Slippers.

Since I spend most of my time indoors, and aren't actually a fan of Slippers, I typically wander about with just a pair of socks on.
When I head outdoors, I tend to put on my "Shoe" shoes, since they're actually the most comfortable pair of the bunch, although from time to time I'll wear the canvas shoes when the weather's too hot and sticky for the great big clunky "Shoe" shoes.
I used to wear my trainers a lot, but then I also used to go outside a lot, too!

.. What a fascinating insight into my world of shoes! :

If you'd like to stuff my mailbag with questions slightly more interesting than today's shoe one, you can do so right here, at https://bit.ly/AGAW_Mail. Send comments, questions, game ideas, thoughts and more, and they'll probably turn up here, eventually.
