Yesterday was a day for pinching ideas. Trying out old games and jotting down a few mechanics as I go.

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

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!

Yet another fix for Crossed. I'm really not sure why it occasionally outputs completely blank puzzles. All very odd. I think it's a memory/variable issue, as it seems to be happening most often when the puzzle takes too long to generate, and curiously empties itself as it does so! Anyway, I've rewritten chunks of it, yet again, in the hopes that it'll finally fix the issue, but ... yet again, it's reset the "Yesterday's Solution" content, so apologies for that.

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

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

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

Tonight I spent a good couple of hours working on the Checksums for the JNKPlat level editor.

Lots of fairly minor things happened yesterday.

The triangles weren't too hard to get up and running yesterday, so I also took time to make a completely random letter grid. The letter grid doesn't really have any specific solution due to it being entirely random, but you're supposed to play it like you would a game of Boggle.. Trying to find words with letters that join up.
