25 games and counting. Yikes!

Added Fluffy Clouds which are a bit less fluffy than I'd like, but do the job well enough. The generator features a couple of options to switch between solid and fluffy clouds, so should be fairly useful in a bunch of different scenarios.

Added Rebordered.. Should probably call it "fences" but the sillier name seemed to go well with the font I found. Thanks to Tom Murphy for the wonderful fonts. Reusing the puzzle layouts from Wordoku, your task is to draw borders around groups of the silly faces/objects/etc, in such a way that all 5 symbols exist within each area.

The time of Advent is nearly over, and BOY am I glad!!

You can Download Lazy Man's 3DS Theme Generator here, but you'll need a couple more utilities on your system to make full use of it.

Editing Themes

To edit 3DS Homebrew Themes, you'll need a decent editor. I use the editor "Usagi" You can download that here For reference, the version I use is v1.0.12.1 - I'm not sure if there are other (better or worse) editors available, as I found this one and was comfortable using it.

Today I need to fight with the 3DS Converter tool and try to make things as smooth as I possibly can.

I've created a theme bundler program which can help create brand new 3DS Themes. The program's kickstarted a conversion of the Daily Platdude Pixelart images, to be 3DS Theme compatible. This post will grow as the collection expands. If this feature proves extremely popular, I might see about integrating them into the actual pixelart posts, somehow, but that's a task for another day.

Hacking 3DS Hacking is fun!!

Seems that, as I panic to generate content for the SoCoder Advent of Creativity, my goto thing to create is additional games for Foldapuz!

Added Slitherlink. It's a fairly standard puzzle game, but it's honestly not one I can manage to complete myself! Still, they generate well enough, and the solutions aren't always exact, so there's a bit of variety involved in the outcome. Draw one large looping line touching various points on the grid. The numbers show how many of the sides of each box are filled with part of the loop.

I added yet another game to the Fold, last night. Multi Box

Added Multi Box, a grid of numbers and their products. Simply decide which numbers don't belong in the grid and cross them out. There should be 3 numbers in each row and column, along with their product. The number of puzzles in the engine is now reaching a point where each of the categories can have it's own set of puzzles on the default sheet. No longer does the default Maths sheet contain a few Word games, and Word sheets don't have random Logic puzzles in them. There's still the o...

Which project? The one I started yesterday, obviously!!

Yesterday's new Foldapuz addition went alarmingly smoothly. .. I should've known that wasn't a good sign.

Added Tartan and Polkadot to add a few more repeating pattern options. The Polkadot generator has a couple of really nice options to generate some lovely repeating textures, which can be great for menu backgrounds and the like.

Added Find The King, which is another little Chess based puzzle. The enemy have swarmed, and are doing really alarmingly well, and you're down to your last piece. Your King is somewhere on the board, but where can he possibly be? Incidentally, this is the game I previously had in mind, here.

I spent about 80% of yesterday choosing a font!

I spent near enough all day, yesterday, fighting the fight with Emscripten.

I spent most of yesterday struggling to get the Pixelart2STL tool to have a lovely 3D WebGL representation of the model, so that I can then upgrade the tool to allow for monochrome extruded models like the original .exe does.

As I add more and more features to Foldapuz, it becomes more and more apparent that I haven't put a bloomin' link on this site, anywhere!!

Added Bracket Surgery, whereby you need to add two sets of brackets into the equation so that the result is correct. This game relies on your understanding of BODMAS, so if you're not "into" your maths, it might not appear that the original equation is incorrect! Rest assured, the maths have been checked, and the equation is wrong.

A quick batch of JNKPlat levels, today, as I couldn't think of anything else to do for the Advent of Creativity!

Played about an hour and a half of Smash, from Midnight, until I was too tired to play any more. As good a game as always, but no sign of the always-fun Homerun contest.. Hmm...

Added Repeating Patterns, or at least patterns which "should" repeat! These are handy for backgrounds and things like that. I then reused those patterns to create Floor Tiles, and additionally Standard Platforms. Additionally, I added in some Spaceships, which seem to work better at lower resolutions.

I spent a couple of hours yesterday working up a new Platform Generator for the Sprite-Gen doohickey.

Yesterday was a bit of a rest day, as I gradually wore myself down with all the coding I've been doing recently.

Added Link Janitor, named after my AGameAWeek game of the same name. Link up the lettered pairs without crossing paths. I've not accounted for diagonals, so avoid those. They might be do-able with diagonals, and may be easier or harder, but they're not part of the puzzle, so.. Avoid!! The previous week's cleaning up of the structure meant that everything was a little easier to work with, today, although I did forget how to use some of my own functions. Previously, I could quickly Page-...
