A pretty much identical day!

Developments

I spent yesterday trying to balance this week's game.

Developments

As well as the current project, last night I decided to attempt a secondary project..

This game's at a crossroads.

Yesterday's doings : Additional work on this week's game, and a couple of bland looking info-pages..

James "Jayenkai" Gamble is a coder who likes to code!
Having attempted and failed at both GCSE and ALevel computing, mostly due to becoming overwhelmingly bored at their idea of computing (Punched cards, Binary and How to Use a Wordprocessor!), I inevitably gave up on the idea of "computing" as a career.
Coding is my hobby.
I enjoy the freeform nature of my hobby, and will continue with it until I become bored with it!
I create because I enjoy creating, and if anyone happens...

I thought I had an idea for next week's game, but it all got fairly dull, alarmingly quickly!!

I've already finished off the last few bits of this week's game, "Spikes Have Rage", and am now moving on to the next game..
