I'm trying my best to figure out a nice control scheme for this Sheepdog game, but the two main methods don't appear to be working out.

Quite a busy day, yesterday. Not only did I get the game finished off and posted, I also then tackled a couple of website things that I'd not yet bothered to do.

For the past few weeks, my iPad battery's been conking out halfway through the day, with about 30% remaining.

I love to play Scrabble. Mum also loves to play Scrabble. This coming Mother's Day (this Sunday) me and Mum will probably be spending some time playing Scrabble.

Six years to the day that they found the great big tumour in my head. In the time since, I've created over 130 games, built 3 different Frameworks including the recent C++ one, and drawn a heck of a lot of daily Pixelart doodles, tons of ALChoons, completely rewritten two fairly large websites, and a whole load more. None of this would've been possible without the great Neurosurgery team up at Salford Royal, (specifically, Dr Leggate's team) and the wonders that are the British NHS. Tha...

Today during testing, I hit a rather nasty issue with the framework. When coding the Online Scoreboard component, I added a 5 second timeout to the code. Unfortunately, as well as that works "in theory", the timeout is completely ignored during the "connect" part of the script.

Each time I release a game, the thoughts and comments come rolling in. Let's take a peek at this week's thoughts.

I find Flappadiddle Doo having the smooth gameplay like its predecessor and the polish found in ''Sheep Goes Right''.

Today's plan is exactly the same as yesterday's plan. It's like Deja Vu, all over again.

"Episodes 1, 2 and 3 of Stargate Origins are now available online" said the tweet. I hurried to the Apple AppStore, downloaded the StargateCommand app, and promptly paid £19.99 for "Full Access"

Yeay! Thanks to all for testing. Rychan - I see the hitbox detection has been improved somewhat also which is cool A little more forgiving, this time. The original game was a little "too" mean when it came to bird vs flame hits!

The Enter Your Name screen is now back in the framework, and works pretty much the same as it did before.

So, yesterday didn't go as planned.

I *think* I've figured out how to "create" XCode projects programatically.

click for uninteresting, bigger, more readable image Aha!

I spent most of yesterday, once again, trying to get Android to work.

Nearly..!

This morning's been spent adding things into the framework for the purpose of level editing and sharing!! Ooooh!

Things I've attempted and failed, today.

Xmas and New Year is over and done with, so it's time to get back into the swing of things.. ... .. By doing more bloomin' menus!

1. Finish the framework! This is the biggest item on the list. I'm currently considering cobbling together a half-assed version so that I can start releasing my first few Windows games.

Note : Boxing day is what we in the UK call the day after Xmas Day. I'm not sure why it's called that! Wiki! The day went rather uneventfully. A lazy morning, waking up rather late, but then using most of the morning to prepare for what was to come.

A bit of blind coding, last night.

Thanks! \o/
