"Gosh, Jay, you seem to have spent way too much time 'spring cleaning' over the past few days. .. What happened to the Neon Tower thing?"

Day Two was mostly frustrations. Not of the hardware or technology, but of Windows.

Still haven't posted this week's SoCoder newsletter, but it's about 95% done, and raring to go! Once that's done, everything else on the todo list is done, and I'm ready to focus on the two games I need to write by Sunday! Sorted!!!

2022's come and gone, and it's certainly been eventful.

Latest Game : 31st October 2022 : Bubble Munky This is a complete list of my games and tools created for SmileBASIC on the Nintendo Switch.

Can't seem to focus on my game-dev this week. I spent most of yesterday tweaking that ALChoon from the day before.

Tried to make a lovely ALChoon yesterday, and all seemed to flow amazingly well. The beat seemed perfect, the "meeees" and the "maaaws" appeared in tune. Everything was going perfectly!

If you take a peek at the top of the site, all four Recent games are for different engines.

The aliens are back. Blast them away, whilst running through the Arena. If you've a Switch and SmileBASIC, you can grab a copy of the game using the Public Key

Got loads of stuff done, yesterday! .. But still haven't finished Trilume.

*phew* That was a scorcher..

It's too hot to code, and the UK Heatwave is about to kick off into temperatures previously unseen in the UK since the '70s! Oh joy!

Yesterday, after posting a video of Alien Deathmatch Arena (SmileBASIC) to Twitter, I tried linking to the original Alien Deathmatch.. .. The result was less than perfect.

With the addition of enemies, the Greenie game feels a little more.. Gamey..?

Right then, first Monthly Switch game.. Time to get drawing!

There's still a little bit of bedroom left to organise.

Updated 17th Feb 2022 : Mini Invasion A select set of tiny games.

Of course, the problem with doing 87 projects at a time, is a distinct lack of focus.

With over 90 games written in a year, it's time to look back on some of the highlights from the past 365 days, and see what joys have been created.

The last SmileBASIC game of the year still needs doing..

Link up paths of blocks, so that they connect to the left and right of the arena. If you've a Switch and SmileBASIC, you can grab a copy of the game using the Public Key
