As I added yet another game to this year's Advent Collexion, I realised that I'm pretty much out of ideas!!

I'd better get this game done, this week! It's getting a wee bit unruley. I need to pull in the ideas a bit and just get the game finalised.

Today I've been playing with the map again.

Last year I drew some graphics!
A set of sprites and background tiles for a DS game based on the classic Alien Breed on the Amiga.
The plan fell apart soon after.

Last week I decided to resurrect it on the PC.
Sorry! This is another none-DS game, folks!

Tomb Raider meets Pitfall!


Retro Raider took a few days to get into a decent build, and then over the course of a few weeks I added lots of extra little chunky bits.


Recently I've been tweaking it even more.
There's now a handful of levels, a few collectables, doors, keys, and even a little Ghost Replay/Time Trial mode.


Good, clean, retro happyness!
There's even a level editor to keep you entertained even longer!

You can Download RetroRaider here, and have some fun! As usual, that link will be the most up to date version, and if there's any major changes, I'll let you know.

A simple game, this week, but one that's already evolved quite a bit.

As I mentioned the other day, I actually got this game done earlier on in the week, and it was quite a bit of fun even then.
Since then, I've updated it a couple more times, and now it's even better than it was! woot!!



The game is based on an Amiga game I once played many, many years ago.
A simple design.
You swirl around the outside of the arena, moving the mouse left and right.
You fire with the Left Mouse Button, you slowdown with the Right.

And you keep on going until you're dead.
Because, you never can stop it!!

They just keep on coming!!!

Playing tip : Don't let the blues get out of control! They're your first priority.

You can Download Microbes here, and get killing those germs!!

I felt a little rough yesterday, so mostly spent the day just making more JNKPlat levels, and otherwise playing various games on the Switch.

Trying to catch up with my own flu-fuelled laziness, I managed once again to do a nice big spurt of coding, yesterday.

I've finally started to make progress on the upload tool for the editor.
It can currently deal with one single level pack at a time, at which point it scans the checksums to ensure it's valid, and then double checks that the level isn't already in the database.
If all is fine, it adds it to the database!

As I struggled through yet another flu-riddled day, I did at least do achieve one good thing.

Because there may or may not have been resulting copyright issues, I've left this post on the backburner until the magazine went off the shop shelves. Usually I'd happily scan in a bit of a page if my games are mentioned, but this time it's a whole entire page, and that's a completely different kettle of fish. (Although, to be fair, I've written more than they have, so that probably counts for something!!)

Look inside for the complete text, and scary scary photograph!!!

The new bit-shifting seems to be functioning as expected in the save file.
