Created a new project in SmileBASIC last night, and started fiddling about with a swirly background effect.

As I stated a few days ago (didn't I?) I've been working on a port of Poke 5,n over to SmileBASIC.
It's been going fairly well, but I had to integrate Touch control to my framework. Eeek!!

Plain Popcorn
Blog
3rd May 2020
The Browsercade edition of Space Popcorn is coming together well enough, but right now it's just you vs the popcorn, and there aren't any pickups or anything like that, to speak of.
Today I'll be trying to decide what methods to aim for, and figure out what nice new powerups should be added.
Incidentally, this'll be my 52nd game of the year.
So, um.. Yeah.. Woot!
From here on, I don't have to code a single game, for the rest of the year, and I'll still have made AGameAW...

I've been asked how I achieve my scrolling backgrounds, especially since (as you can probably tell from my games) I'm not using "normal" techniques.
So, let's code a quick example, and you can hopefully follow along.
WARNING : This is far from being the ideal, or even the "normal" way of drawing backdrops.
I am NOT the best tutor for programming. I've been coding far too long without getting rid of my bad bad habits, and have been working towards "many games, quickly" techniques, rat...

Week Two, on the Island.
The week started with a bang, as all the villagers gathered for the opening of the island's campsite.
Even Mr Angry Brows decided to be slightly less mean, on this occasion.

With the new SpikeDislike.com being in place, and me aiming to make the biggest, baddest, bestest version of SpikeDislike available, I've found myself heading back into the SpikeDislike2 folder quite a bit.

Lots of internal tweaks to the engine, today.
The game now records your highest combo, and places that alongside your highscore in the saves. This means that, when necessary, I can pop that up on the screen.
Your last score on the scoreboard is now highlighted and bounces to and fro, to stand out on the list.
I do miss having that in the Browsercade.
.. Maybe I should try to figure out a way to do that, but Browsercade's save data is there for lots of different types of games, and having a Top 10...

For the past couple of months, I've had the plan of a "One Touch Games" framework in mind, but couldn't ever decide on the best name for such a domain.
A week or two ago, I just figured "To hell with it", and opted for SpikeDislike.com instead.

Every week or so, I think about SpikeDislike.
How big it once was, and how abandoned it now is.
Going from it's hefty days back in 2011, when it actually SOLD a decent amount on iOS, to the current day where it's all been removed from the AppStore because I haven't updated it in years.
And yet, it's something I keep coming back to, and it has pretty much defined the sort of things that I've been doing for the past decade. Spike has whittled his way into becoming an alarmingly com...

A decade is over, and what have I done?
373 games, created a new blogging script for here, rewritten the Socoder forum, started a few new sites and more!
Oh, and a brain tumour!
It's been a wild and crazy decade, and over the next few days I'll be looking back at the best (and worst) games from the decade.
2010 - BlitzMax
2011 - Touch Control
2012 - The Bad Year
2013 - Monkey-X
2014 - OUYA!!
2015 - The Gap Year
