Didn't get a lot of work done, yesterday, but I did at least bother to recreate the old BlitzCoder logo, because.. Why not!!?

Living within the Greater Manchester region, having last night's incidents happen within my region make things a little close to home.
My thoughts and prayers are with those devastated by last night's events.

I'm not sure I'll be managing to get much done, today. My head's not in the right place.

After each weekly game is posted, people LOVE sending me their own little reviews!
Send me yours to get it posted in these topics!
Thanks to RSKGames (Who's a Patreon supporter, btw!) for his now regular weekly review!

Is this a test?!

I still have a fair amount of tweakage to do on this week's game, and realistically I should be uploading it, already!

When I first created SoCoder, I didn't include options for moving topics in an Admin style way.

Messing About With a Handheld

Although I've had to wrangle quite a few bits around, and tweak various settings here and there, for the most-part, my Emulation Archive now has a new home on the GPD xd.

For the past few years, I've been relying on my Archos Gamepad 2 to do all my in-dev testing.
Loads of work on my framework resulted in my OUYA games being nicely compatible with the device, so rather than constantly switching over to the actual OUYA or RazerTV to do small tests, I instead relied on the portability of the handheld Archos Gamepad 2.

I got absolutely no game-coding done, yesterday!

Developments

Not entirely sure how this week's game will end up.

I didn't get any game-dev done yesterday

I spent 4 hours playing Zelda:BOTW yesterday! Ooops!

Developments

Nearly up to 400 games in the Jayenkai Archive ((URL "https://AGameAWeek.com/Games/">currently 393!)), and boy, am I struggling for game names, lately!?!

A bit of a redux from one of the minigames in the Read Error A collection.

Developments

I played Flappadiddle for about an hour, last night!!

But wait.. There's more!!

Things are flowing fairly well.

Developments

The todo list over at New Socoder seems to be sommewhat manageable, but there's still tons of stuff to do!

Developments

I normally post AGameAWeek on a Monday, and without that weekly event, my days are all blending into one another.

Developments

Socoder v2 has been in the works for almost a week, and in that time, I've really only scratched the surface of what needs to be done to it.

One of my favourite discoveries in coding is A=A-((A-B)/C)
It's a very simple little formula which has a myriad of multiple uses.
In my framework, it's taking care of all manner of different things for me, but today I wanted to mention it's use in score displaying.

Developments

For the past couple of days, I've been working on a Top Secret hidden project, and late last night I made the first post about it, over at SoCoder.

Developments

I'm enjoying my long lazy weekend!

I've made a fair amount of progress on "Box's .. Untitled", but every time I load it up, I have this sagging sinking feeling of redoing a game that has no real purpose.

Maybe it's the fact that I got interrupted by a coup...
