New ICQ? Blog
8th April 2020
A fair number of changes, over on the ICQ app, today, including a forced request for your phone number.. Not really happy about that, and will be watching for spam over the next few days.
If I don't post a giant whinge about my phone suddenly getting a ton of garbage sent to it, you can assume it's "probably" not being used illicitly.

Meanwhile..


Last night I started work on a remake of "Fan of Bugs" over on PetitSwitch, and the basics are working reasonably well.
Bugs get spun around, and try to make their way towards the player, and everything works as it should.

So far, I've not added the little monsters to the middle of the fans. The game definitely needs a danger, or two, but currently trying to traverse the spinning "fans" is hard enough!

Balancing the difficulty level will probably be the hardest part of this game, as well as deciding on how best to force the player to keep moving.
The game seems to work better when in motion. If the player stops for a while, to let all the bugs catch up, then they can end up waiting quite a while. Forcing the player onwards, then, is the key to making it fun/tricky.

... Maybe just a constantly scrolling screen!?!
