I can't believe I've still not finished this yet! Seems that, no matter how much work I do on this game, it's still not quite done. This week, I finally decided on the complete "Not Chance" and "Not Community Chest" card selection. 12 of each, ready and waiting in the engine. Next, I added all those lovely patents. They're all in there, each one displaying on a nice little card, along with the creator's name. I haven't yet gotten around to actually printing the bulk of ...

Aww. Didn't work. This week's Wednesday Workshop (#209) asked us to create a game with some kind of Gravity. If you've been following AGameAWeek for a while, you'll remember Puzzobomb. A nice puzzle game with Gravity. I also did MunkyBlocks as a kind of follow up. Well, this week I decided to try it again, but with rotational gravity, rather than plain gravity. As such, the block will fall in the direction they're placed. They ha...

Not much this week, or at least, not as good as Microbes anyway! I decided to redo Raining Bombs, from a few weeks ago. The last one was for my Cookie phone, (which has since become a Viewty phone) and this one's for Windows. It looks more dramatic than it is! Two turrets that shoot each other over and over again. If you blast your enemy beneath the bottom of the screen, you win a point, and then it all starts all over again. No intro, no music, not even a "BANG!", more a subtle silent...

Well, not all suck. Let's take a quick run through my week, shall we? Tuesday Posted last week's game, got prepared to work on PatentWars some more. Created a few nice looking player counters, got them moving around the board, all is well. <img src="https://socoder.net/uploads/1/counters.png"> Wednesday That little red counter looks really really neat. Attempted to mould it, somehow, into a Socoder logo. It worked! <img src="https://socoder.net/uploads/...

Last Wednesday I started a new project, it's since gotten out of hand and I need some ideas to help bring it all to a close. Let's start from the top. Over at the MyLGCookie forums, someone asked if there was a nice touchscreen Monopoly. As usual, Jay jumps in and says "Yeah, that'll be nice and easy" ... It's not! See, rather than getting my ass sued off, I decided to make it "But a bit different", and the idea I came up with was to use Patents. Instead of houses and hotels, you ...

At the start of this week, I completed a nice quick game of Atoms for my phone, so here's that.. It's a classic Amiga PD game from many many years ago. Tap to place an atom, place too many to explode them, capture all the tiles you can. Simple gameplay, but lots of fun! You can Download Atoms here For the rest of this week, I've been working on a mock board-game. Confined to the rules of board, it's been fun creating a game that could conceivably exist in the real world. Unf...

OMG! It's a Trial Edition!! WTF!? Demo! ARGH!!! Actually, I've not finished yet. But rather than skip out a week of AGameAWeek, I've decided to release a quick Trial edition. In this version, you must guide Platdude through 11 classic JNKPlatDS08 levels. They're all in there, and they all work approximately as they did before There are, of course, odd timing issues, as I've not quite got everything exact. It's not TOO obvious ...

I made a start on this game a few days ago, and things seem to be progressing at a decent enough rate. The basic gameplay engine is in there, now. The test level (200x50 blocks) loads, platdude can run around, grab onto bars, jump around and use ladders. He can also work plungers and have the blocks open and shut accordingly. So, that's all nice! You might notice that the graphics are looking remarkably similar to JNKPlatDS08. That's because they ARE those graphics! The engine loads t...

I'm a calm person. I will happily settle with what I've got, and be glad that I have it. I don't own a copy of Flash, I can't afford it, and I'm not going to steal it. So I carry on making games in Blitz, and whatever else I can get my hands on. So, with my £100 Phone, from LG, (The KP500 'Cookie') I started to write games using the freely available MidletPascal. It's a wonderful piece of software, and it does many great things.

Today I start a new feature, mostly due to 2 odd posts in my spambin. 1. Invispnib writes.. Should they even be there? Please comment on this video clip. I don't think Robert Cooper or Brad Wright would ever let these two ever have any serious part on Stargate Universe. Well maybe the brunette??? The link in question Now, usually, I'd set that to spam, and kill the bugger. But it is, indeed, a stargate related video. Which is odd, because I'm not sure I've mentioned my love of ...

I haven't started it yet! Uhoh! This week's Wednesday Workshop (#201) asks us to create a game within a 3 hour limit. Looks like I'm aiming for that, then! Additionally, since I've been thinking of my phone all week, I think I'm also going to try to come up with a game that works on that. Maybe a puzzle game, of some sort. No idea. So, first in Blitz, then later on the Phone. I might even redo it again, and pop it into PRC2, 'cos that's looking rather empty lately. That's my plan. Not sure w...

This week's Wednesday Workshop (#200! wowie) asked us to create a game using no more than 2000 characters. I managed to recreate the classic 8-bit title "Splat!", whereby you control a spider through a maze, picking up fruit. In order to squeeze all that into 2000 characters, I opted for simpler mouse movement, and few other bits and pieces. Then I figured, what the heck, and decided to make it a wee bit bigger for AGameAWeek. Guide the worm through the maze, grab the circles, avoid the squares, a...

H~S~R's coming along, nice and slowly. As I add each new little thing, I spend about an hour playing with the lovely swooshy swirlyness of it. Mmmm.. The whole Texture-Buffer-Blurry thing has really added some niceness to the game. And, just for good measure, you can turn off the texture section. So, if the game's not quite up to speed, turn off the blur, and the game carries on without it. Every element in the game has 2 layers. The Sprite, and the line. Lines are left in the background...

It's been 30 weeks since I last tackled Horizontal Shooter. The last time, I used BlitzMax. It was wonderful, and gave me all manner of nice swirly effects for those lovely background lines. Mmm.. Until it came to running it on other systems, whereby a huge amount of incompatibilities arose, and the game kinda fell on it's arse and died. Oh dear. 30 weeks on, let's give it another go!

So, Red Dwarf. I know there's a lot of complainers out there, but I loved it. OK, it wasn't old Dwarf, and it really missed the laugh-track. But that was good! A good story, great acting, loads and loads of little injokes. Good stuff! More please! ---- No AGameAWeek this week, I took a lazy day. Nothing wrong with that, is there? Good! Meanwhile, here's a progress report. AGameAWeek I started a game last week, but the lack of a certain element made the game completel...

AGameAWeek, except when not! It's Easter weekend, the weather outside is gorgeous, and I'm really not in a Sit + Code type of mood. Doesn't happen very often, but there it is! So, if there's no Game this week, that'll be why! Meanwhile, you might like to check out the new "I bothered to tag all the releases" view. Releases You can now flick through pages of Just Releases. How handy!

OK, as I said earlier, I've been playing with the Skeleton stuff today. Whilst I was in there, I wondered how fun it might be if I added some kind of overriding features into my default engine. You might (or not) have noticed, but since Wednesday Workshop Week #1, I've been placing all my game's data into the System folder, then into it's own Weekly numbered folder within. If you get ALL my games (from the past couple of years), you can bundle them all together into the same folder. The root contains al...

Game 3 needed a few tweaks, here and there, this morning. Mostly due to the controls being a little twitchy. Plus, something's missing. And annoyingly, it's becoming increasingly apparent that the missing something is indeed Ingame Music! uhoh!! It's bad enough having to create a jingle for each and every game, but to now start building up a bunch of little ingame tunes, let alone a big enough collection that folk won't grow tired of. .. That's a lot of music to do! yikes! ...
