I did absolutely bugger all, yesterday!

Today's the day I need to start a new SmileBASIC game.

It's a return to the meatball infested arena in space, as you pilot your ship to pick up the stars. You can Play the game in the Browsercade, on Desktop, Mobile or Tablet.

Aaaaaargh! GUI Work!!!

Oh dear.. I'd better not get hung up on this, like I did with the Testcards!!

Yesterday I scrambled together the second choon for the first 2021 AL Bum.

I made my first ALChoon for 2021 yesterday.

.. Possibly others have alerted you to this already. Since you write a lot of "choons", I thought of JNK when I saw this:

More work on the Testcard Generator, yesterday.

Hmmm..

Hmmm..

Hardly slept, last night.

The little racer is coming along fairly well.

Yeah, I might redo Traxicle in the Browsercade.

I should probably shuffle my schedule around so that everything isn't all happening on a Thursday..

This butterfly is extremely hungry, but those pesky bees keep getting in its way. If you've a Switch and SmileBASIC, you can grab a copy of the game using the Public Key

A lovely swirly background effect..

Yesterday I didn't do "too" much..

After each game's release comes an influx of feedback from our insanely large number of player. Let's see what RSKGames has to say about this week's game, Destination Starship.

RSKGames has been posting a bunch of comments for some of the older (if you can call games from January and February "Old") Browsercade games. Let's have a peek!

Such a silly little game, but it's seemingly fun enough.

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

Some silly sailor has dropped a bunch of really important floppy disks into the water. You'd better go and get them. If you've a Switch, and have downloaded SmileBASIC, you can grab a copy of the game using the Public Key...

Let's create a classic retro effect. Flames! As with all of these tutorials, you can hit F5 at pretty much any step of the process to see how the changes in code have impacted the program.

Wrote up a Flame Effect thing for SmileBASIC, last night. I'd written the effect about a week ago, but only just got to the vague instructions, last night. Busy week! And then I went to post it, looked at the day's postings, and realised that 9 posts in a single day is probably more than enough!!

I enjoyed my day off, yesterday. Got a few none-gamedev things worked out, and even started playing with paper again. Wondering whether to bring back my old Paper Arcade crafts, expand the DVD Case images to fit properly and include a back, and maybe even some oldskool cardboard boxes and cassette inlays. .. Yep, even when not coding, my mind is fizzling away, trying to keep itself busy and not worry about all the doom and gloom outside.
