Bombers Incoming!
Blog
21st May 2014
So far so good on the JNKBombers front.
Most of Battle Mode's features are implemented as planned.
Human players, AI players, Bombs, Shield, Coins, Shop and today I added a few cheap-as-chips themes into the mix for good measure. There's only 6 themes, but it's enough to keep it marginally interesting!
Over the next couple of days, I'll keep tweaking away at the AI, and maybe add some new powerups, but otherwise I'm now at the point where I can say "Yeah, that's what I wanted to play!!"
Still a coupl...

The game's coming along smoothly, now that I've finally settled on a vaguely decent AI. Obviously, it'll play a LOT better when you've got actual players to play against, but if you're sad and alone like me, you'll have something to play against.

JNKBombers - Update
Blog
13th May 2014
As the game continues to get built up, I've started to work on a generic looking menu system for it.

Yep, it's as bland as bland can be, but the point of the menu is simply to get you into the game, so ....

I've just added my first Amiga game to my Jayenkai Archive.
I've had access to the disk's files for a long time, but never got around to getting the compiler stuff up and running.
Today, I finally buggered about with WinUAE and my collection of Amos disks, and got Amos Pro Compiler up and running.

I've got 15 little characters in there, so far, and I'm sure I'll find some more along the way.
Next step is to get some gameplay running, and try to stop the annoying generic "diagonal-pass" bug solved.. stupid bug.
Game expected by the end of the month, as it's far too big to be finished any sooner!

Here's how the game currently looks.
The game will be a generic Bomberman clone, but with as many AGameAWeek characters in that I can think of, assuming they're vaguely recognisable. Feel free to comm...

JNKBombers?
Blog
9th May 2014
I've not attempted a Bomberman clone for many many years, so after a fairly short discussion on the OUYA forums, I sprang to life, and got started.
So far so good, but I'm thinking there's a lot of stuff to implement, so it'll probably take a little longer to finish this game than my regular AGameAWeek schedule.
Don't be surprised if this one drags on a little!

Ups and Downs
Blog
8th May 2014
One of the hardest things in the world of AGameAWeek is when you take time off.
The past week has been chaotic at home, and things got a bit down in the realm of the real-world. As such, I opted to take the week off from AGameAWeek, mostly because my mind wasn't in the right place to be designing fun little games.
The week off left me a little bored, and as is usually the case when in that mindset, I started to look back through the past few weeks and dig through the stats.

My Spreadshirt AGameAWeek store has been available for many years, but is rarely ever bothered with.. .. Usually because I never bother to link to it!
Yesterday I posted the "Evolution of Dude" pic, and someone on Twitter suggested it'd make a nice TShirt.
...Yeah, why not!!
So, today, I'm reopening (and/or re-using!) the store, and have added the (URL "https://agameaweek.spreadshirt.co.uk/evolution-of-dude-tshirt-A28273211/customize/color/4">Evolution of Dude TShirt.)

No Game :(
Blog
4th May 2014
Although I started a game, the other day, something else came up and it's removed my normally-frantic coding spirit.
Family life is always more important than AGameAWeek.
Normal service will resume next week, probably with the game I started the other day.
Happy 4th of May, folks.
Live Long, and Prosper.
